Oxford University students have decided to remove a portrait of the Queen due to colonial history.
Magdalen College Middle Common Room’s (MCR) members demanded that the portrait be removed from their common room due to it being a symbol of “recent colonial history”.
Meanwhile, Education Secretary Gavin Williamson termed the student’s move to be “simply absurd”.
As per MCR’s meeting minutes, the presence of the Queen’s portrait was for some students, depictions of the monarch and the British monarchy represent recent colonial history and wanted their common room to be more welcoming.
