Manchester illustrator Stan Chow says he is taking legal advice after the Conservatives used his cartoon portrait of Andy Burnham without first seeking his permission.

Chow said he was not contacted before the image was used. The artwork depicts the Greater Manchester mayor, although the supplied information does not specify where or how the Conservatives used it.

The illustrator’s decision to seek legal advice raises a potential dispute over the use of his work. However, no legal action or formal complaint is identified in the available information.
