    Despite lacking the austerity of Eiffel’s or Tatlin’s tower it’s ostentatious curves lack the frivolity of a fairground helter-skelter.
    Just as the Millennium Dome – a big empty tent – seemed to embody the start of the New Labour project perhaps this is an appropriate monument for it’s end – a tangled mess with no clear sense of direction.
