Oriel College Rhodes statue removal on hold due to costs

The Cecil Rhodes statue at Oriel College THE statue of Cecil Rhodes on Oriel College will not be removed yet, despite an independent recommendation which says it should fall. Rhodes’ statue, which sits on the side of the Grade-II listed building, will not be removed yet, the college’s Governing Body has decided. In a statement acknowledging the work of an independent commission set up to investigate the legacy of the statue, the college said its Governing Body had ‘carefully considered the regulatory and financial challenges, including the expected time frame for removal’ adding these issues ‘could run into years with no certainty of outcome, together with the total cost of removal’.

Decision to keep Cecil Rhodes statue at Oxford college a slap in the face

An Oxford University college’s decision not to remove the statue of Cecil Rhodes has been called “a slap in the face” by campaigners. The Rhodes Must Fall campaign accused Oriel College of “institutional racism” after the governing body said it would not seek to move the monument at this stage. The campaigners – which staged protests last summer over the statue of the British imperialist – are urging the college “to reconsider their position immediately” as they pledged to continue their fight. An independent inquiry to examine Rhodes’ legacy was set up in June last year after the governing body of Oriel College “expressed their wish” to remove the statue from outside the college.
