Christian artist banned from own show sues authorities

Victoria Culf. Source: Christian Concern

A Christian artist, who is suing a local authority after she was barred from her own exhibition after voicing her gender critical beliefs, has uncovered lies and “collusion”, Christian Concern says. 

A judge has allowed Victoria Culf, 44, to file an amended claim against Watford Borough Council in light of the new evidence. She started her claim last year on several grounds including breach of contract, discrimination and harassment, misfeasance in public office and defamation.

It followed a casual conversation in June 2023 when a council official told Victoria that her child was socially transitioning and asked her opinion. Victoria told the official she believed transitioning was harmful because of her Christian faith and her experience working in mental health.
