Local event organisers in West Lothian have defended themselves amid renewed accusations of persisting with slave trade links.
Formerly known as the John Newland Festival, organisers have renamed the upcoming event as the Bathgate Procession to distance themselves from slave owner Newland.
But after an eagle-eyed local spotted the event's branding still bears an image of the former school built with money left in Newland's will, officials have responded.
