A second said: "A perfect cotton summer midi dress, great for alfresco dinner and drinks." A third added: "Lovely dress, fits well and so stylish. Perfect for summer!"

Marilyn Manson concert cancelled following campaign
Marilyn Manson concert cancelled following campaign The first leg of his One Assassination Under God Tour had been set to kick off at Brighton Centre on October 29 Marilyn Manson performs at the Gibson Amphitheater, Los Angeles (Image: Splash ) The first UK concert of rock star Marilyn Manson's tour has been cancelled after pressure from campaigners and an MP. The first leg of his One Assassination Under God Tour had been set to kick off at Brighton Centre on October 29. On Saturday, fans who go online to contact Ticketmaster receive a message saying: "This event has been cancelled. "Ticket sales have stopped, but there may be tickets available for other dates." In January, prosecutors in the US said they would not file charges against Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, after long-running investigation into allegations of sexual assault and domestic violence. Article continues below Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said the allegations were too old under the law and the evidence is not sufficient to charge the 56-year-old shock rocker. LA County sheriff's detectives had said early in 2021 that they were investigating Manson over alleged incidents between 2009 and 2011 in West Hollywood, where Manson lived at the time. Earlier this month in an open letter to the Brighton and Hove city council leader Bella Sankey, Sian Berry, the Green MP for Brighton Pavilion, called for the October concert to be cancelled. Article continues below In the letter, which was co-signed by some victim support groups and the University of Sussex students' union, she wrote: "Many survivors in Brighton and Hove, and organisations supporting them, will have serious concerns about this booking and its wider impact on other people visiting the city centre, local residents and the wider community." The letter, which was posted online, prompted a flood of responses from the public pointing out that Manson had not been found guilty of allegations against him and that a four-year investigation did not lead to charges. Others branded the call to cancel the gig as censorship.

Kaye Nicholson, CEO of Liberate Jersey thanked the dedicated voluntary work of the Channel Island Pride team for putting on the Pride events, adding there was a wonderful celebratory atmosphere at for its 10th anniversary earlier this said: "At a time when our LGBTQ+ community are seeing a rollback of rights around the world, this was a vital demonstration of support, love and acceptance by our wider local community."Thank you to everyone who joined as attendees, volunteers, performers, valued community partners and allies."
