Will Andy Burnham send the Parthenon Marbles to Greece?
From our UK edition
In 2023, the Mayor of Greater Manchester posted a comment on Twitter about the Parthenon Marbles held at the British Museum: ‘Send them back, no strings. And let’s use culture to change how Britain is seen around the world.’ The prospect of returning the Marbles may not be as close as people imagine Now that the tweet’s author has become Prime Minister, campaigners are very excited that the Marbles may soon be on their way to Greece. An intrepid Greek journalist has pinpointed the continual support offered by Andy Burnham for Early Day Motions to return the Marbles since first entering Parliament in 2001.
