Cultural vandalism or a much needed redevelopment? It is not our place to decide but Newport Council has today destroyed the mural depicting the Chartist uprising and its bloody put-down.

There are plans to recreate the the mural but is really what the people of Newport want? You decide. Please use the form below to let us know how you feel.
