Since being a small child I have fond memories of the Lion and really concerned to its whereabouts-my worst fear was that it had been destroyed. now we know its safe we should do all we can to bring it back to its rightful place.I find the persons responible for its "abduction" incredibly selfish.by the sounds of it they have actually stolen it. surely they sould be made accountable for their actions and made to return it? Please keep up with the campaign.WE WANT OUR LION BACK! As Skegness was my birth place I was fascinated to read this article.

So it should be returned if thats the case. Well if Mr Kheng took the Lion after JD Weatherspoons had brought the place then he infact stole it, as it wouldnt have been his to take.

And i do think that it should never have been removed at all. As holiday makers loved this statue. And was loved by all. Please put it back to its original place were it belongs. As a replica just would not be the same. Lets see it back in its original place for all to see & enjoy it.
