I personally think they should. The Aussies won them fairly so why shouldn't they get to keep the little Urn until the next Ashes test? I understand that it is fragile but if that is the case then why do the keep whipping it out of the case, why not keep it in the glass case? It already does a fair bit of travelling anyway so what is the difference?
The argument is that it belongs at Lords. But I thought that they were playing for this? For the Ashes. Surely then they should be allowed to keep it for a short while?
Maybe the Brits think that the Aussies will steal it and never let it return. Perhaps they could hold it for ransom?
It is nice to see that there are other people out there that are influential enough to make a bit more noise about it. The Keep The Ashes In Australia pitch now has the help of Richard Branson, Alan Boarder and Ian Botham. However the other side has the Barmy Army and I think they can sing louder than RB, AB and IB. I don't think it will happen somehow, I think the Ashes will return back to the UK to be kept at Lords as it always has been.
