Anti-racist flag cancelled due to concerns over offence

Brighton & Hove City Council has cancelled an anti-racist art exhibition featuring a reimagined Union Jack flag, created by artist Gil Mualem-Doron, over concerns it could offend minority communities. The artwork, which incorporates designs from diverse groups, had been displayed at public venues for over a decade. Council leader Bella Sankey stated that libraries must remain neutral and safe spaces for all customers, citing the city's status as a 'Libraries of Sanctuary.'
