Glasgow’s Grand Ole Opry club in bitter row after ban of Confederate flag

A country and western club in Glasgow has been divided over a ban on the use of the Confederate flag, an emblem associated with racism. The ban has led to cancelled bookings and the National Theatre of Scotland scrapping a play staged at the venue. Some club members now demand the flag’s reinstatement, while others warn protests outside the club if the symbol were restored. Police investigated but made no arrests, as no official UK ban exists.
