costing loads of money which the city did not have
You do know the money to remove the statues has been donated so its not really costing the city very much.

As far as I know, the city has never requested bids to sell the statues. If this was about matching the current views of the city, simply letting someone pay you for them and moving the figures elsewhere should be sufficient, right? Especially since our entire state is broke af. But that's not what they are trying to do. They are trying to erase history. Erasing our State's history from the State's most renowned City is a state matter, not a "purely local one."

You must have missed the news a few weeks ago where they were caught trying to sneak the cost into the city's budget. To my knowledge no evidence was ever presented that any money has been donated to pay for this.
