Recently I took my nephew, visiting London from California, to see the refurbished Imperial War Museum in Southwark. I'd been telling him how great it was, and indeed it used to be one of my favourite museums in London - bright, airy, full of fabulous stuff like Spitfires and Sopwith Camels suspended from the ceiling in its cavernous interior. The museum was closed for well over a year for an extensive (and expensive) refit and the result is that it has been
completely ruined. How could this happen? How could so much public money have been spent on such a horrible mistake?
