Tom Flynn argues and rightly so that t is a case of legitimacy rather than legality - moral pressure on UK government @houseofcommons.parliament.uk , @houseoflords.parliament.uk and the British Museum to reunite the #ParthenonMarbles, @unesco.org

Louise Carpenter writes: 'Hislop's love of the British Museum had already been souring. In 2021, she had joined the British Committee for the Reunification of the Parthenon Marbles, which seeks to repatriate them from the museum to the Acropolis Museum in Athens.

"We couldn't afford holidays to Egypt when I was a child - we went to Bognor Regis.... my culture came from the British Museum. I still remember queueing up as a child to see the Tutankhamun exhibition." Says Victoria.

Victoria's own special relationship with the British Museum began at school and she explains there were no foreign trips then but a trip to the British Museum was a journey to many exciting places.

(2) that the onus of justification is on NOT REUNIFYING them in Athens where they were created and whence they were removed in dubious circumstances

BCRPM however has always argued (1) that this collection of sculptures can only make sense in conjunction with the rest of the surviving sculptures in Athens, displayed the right way round at the Acropolis Museum - Μουσείο Ακρόπολη.

Currently the British Museum holds half of the surviving, fragmented Parthenon Marbles. The Greek government's on-going talks with the British Museum continue.

“The Marbles Must Go Home." R W, Proto Thema Eng Edition
“In an era where we’re reassessing historical injustices—whether in racial issues, gender relations, or beyond—why shouldn’t we also rethink our past and return what isn’t ours? The Parthenon Marbles belong in Greece. No question about it.”

The Parthenon+ its marble reliefs are unique symbols of artistic & philosophical heritage from ancient Greece. Removed at a time when politics and the direction of international relations were of a wholly different nature from today, their reunification would be appropriate & timely.
