Marilyn Manson's upcoming concert in Brighton, England, scheduled for October 29, was canceled following strong objections from local political figures and victim support organizations. Local MP Sian Berry highlighted community concerns about potential discrimination and harassment associated with Manson's performance, urging the council to act. The backlash against Manson's UK tour extends to another planned show in Bournemouth, where local officials expressed that his presence doesn't align with community values. Manson continues to face numerous sexual assault accusations despite prior legal resolutions and has resumed performing after a period away from the public eye.
Many survivors in Brighton and Hove, and organisations supporting them, will have serious concerns about this booking and its wider impact on other people visiting the city centre, local residents and the wider community.
I don't feel Marilyn Manson reflects the values we have in BCP and we've been doing a lot of work around things like the White Ribbon accreditation scheme which helps men and boys change negative, damaging behaviours.
