The Model Soldier


Anyone know what this was about, along with the rest of the apparent symbolism that went over my head (sex, paralysis, shooting, birth, buses, facism, urban regeneration etc.)?

How do you like them apples?

It looked like a Spanish warrior from ancient times, someone who might have fought the Romans. Anyway, I assumed it was a lead soldier given to him in childhood by his mother and maybe one of the last personal items of hers he still has. So a reminder of her and his troubled past.
