RecentNews.uk

Artist Stanley Chow threatened legal action against the Conservative Party for using his Andy Burnham illustration without permission.

The Tories printed the artwork on water bottles distributed at their party conference to mock the Labour mayor.

The party agreed to pay a £1,000 image fee plus an undisclosed contribution to Chow's legal expenses.

A Conservative spokesman stated the party values intellectual property and considers the matter closed.
