According to reports, Westminster City Hall ‘was scrambling’ on Thursday morning as officials hunted for Easter decorations, following backlash over their celebration of Ramadan.
On March 7, a light display celebrating Ramadan was switched on in London's Leicester Square.
The city's mayor, Sadiq Khan spoke before switching on the lights, saying the light display was about celebrating London's diversity.
This will be the second year the city has displayed Ramadan lights, after London became the first major city in Europe and the western world to have such a display in 2023, according to Khan.
Critics have argued that despite the celebration of London’s diversity, Easter had not been celebrated in the same way.
Alex Phillips hits out at the “constant erosion, dilution and kicking” of Christianity as Westminster Council hurries to put up Easter decorations after only celebrating Ramadan.
“What people are doing is cultural vandalism!”
