The last I heard, London was not part of the United States and so is not subject to following the constitution of the United States. I would object to stupas, pagodas, mosques, synagogues or churches appearing on public lands in the United States. I'm also opposed to religious organizations being exempt from taxes, and to private citizens getting tax deductions for making contributions to religious organizations.
