About this listen
Hello Boys & Girls,
We discuss the recent news of returning Lord Elgin's marbles, and we don't mean the ones his wife kept in her purse .... Elgin lived in the early 19th century and he was the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, bet you didn't know that ! Did he steal the artifacts, did he take them, did he buy them? We don't know ... we weren't there ...
The collection of marbles are made up of 17 figures and an elaborate frieze that decorated the 2,500-year-old Parthenon temple at the Acropolis in Athens.
Who owns the IP any way? Should Greece have to pay reparations for the British protecting history?
Greek response "I don't care that you bought it, give it back" ... Lady Justice is calling ...
British response "we won't dismantle our great collection" ... so "hit the road Jack ... and don't you come back no more"
George Osborne's secret meeting with the Greek Prime Minister ...
The Yank gets educated on how the world works and the Brit gets sad ...
Should we turn a blind eye to history? We discuss it all ...
