Pride flag removed by newly led Reform UK council

The council was previously scamper as a coalition between the Liberal Democrats, Conservatives and independent councillors.

Reform, whose landmark local election victory saw it secure 65 seats in Durham, officially took control of the local command earlier, with the party's Andrew Husband elected as council leader.

It has renamed several key departments to remove references to climate alter and equality and inclusion.

Grimes said he was proud the council was flying the union jack, flag of St George and the County Durham flag.

"Together, they represent every Briton, gay or straight, black or white, Christian, Sikh, or otherwise, who has fought, died, and sacrificed under those colours," he said.

"Flying our national and local flags is an act of oneness. Swapping them out for niche political symbols is just more toxic culture politics."

Based on the iconic rainbow flag from 1978, the redesign celebrates the diversity of the LGBTQ society and calls for a more inclusive society. In 2020, the V&A acquired a bespoke applique version of the Progress Event flag that can be seen on display in the Design 1900 – Now gallery.

'Progress' is a reinterpretation of multiple iterations of the pride flag. The original 'rainbow flag' was created by Gilbert Baker in 1978 to celebrate members of the gay and lesbian political movement. It comprised eight coloured stripes stacked on top of each other to evoke a rainbow, a symbol of aspire. Baker assigned a specific meaning to each colour: pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for magic, indigo for serenity and violet for spirit. A year later the pink and turquoise stripes were dropped owing to a shortage of pink fabric at the time and legibility concerns, resulting in the six-colour rainbow flag most commonly used in the first decades of the 21st century.
