The O2 Arena has publicly acknowledged that they "got it wrong" regarding the decision to deny entry to a fan wearing a "free Gaza" shirt.
Venue staff insisted that the man's shirt could cause danger and disruption, which led to a decision that has since been deemed incorrect by the O2.
An O2 spokesperson stated that safety and security are their paramount priority, but acknowledged that not every judgment call is correct, this incident being one such example.
The incident highlights the ongoing tensions around political messaging in public spaces, as both the shirt and the response from security personnel sparked significant debate among onlookers.
