Never been myself (not had the time, when I've had the time, not had the cash usual story) but I'm guessing that particular exhibit is exactly as fucking grim as it sounds.

There are photos out there of it, but since it's forbidden to take photos of it the ones that do exist aren't very clear, and can't get across the scale of it.

Maybe Trump can bring BoJo in contact with his hairdresser. Trump's hairdresser is great, the absolute best.
