Readers think Graffiti artist Banksy's sketch for a slavery memorial in Bristol is "an absolutely fantastic idea". The memorial would replace the statue of slave-trader Colston, which was torn down from its position near Bristol's harbour as part of a Black Lives Matter protest.
According to the sketch, which was posted on Instagram, the statue would return to its pedestal alongside additional statues of the protesters who tore it down.
Other stories in this week's newsletter include a mirrored house near the Joshua Tree National Park, the new Maggie's Centre at a hospital in Leeds and Michelle Ogundehin's thought on diversity.
