I just think the lights on St.Georges hall are really nice to look at. I don’t want to sound like a killjoy to the theorising but surely he’s just going home with his shopping.

I see what you mean about the left side, but I also think it would lose something if it was not there. Hmmm...

The lighting on him is almost a bit theatrical in look. The contrast between the two sides maybe makes it thematically a bit "unbalanced", but I think you're being overly hard to describe it as bad.(Although, taking Mark's thoughts on a crop, a square crop blocking out most of the left side and putting him centre does give it a different feel.)

You might try a bit of cropping to add intensity; the right to inside the bollard, halve the distance between the bottom and his feet and a similar slice out of the top. It wouldn't hurt to ramp the contrast on the subject and the cobbles either -more in keeping with your other recent shots.
