Taylor's Wembley Stadium concerts (August 15-20) were held under high security after her Vienna, Austria concerts (August 8-10) were cancelled following a "terror threat". However, Labour Party officials have recently come under fire for pressuring the police to provide full VIP protection for Taylor, fearing that the Wembley concert might be cancelled.
Taylor's mother and manager Andrea, who was on the heels of the cancellation of the Vienna concert, reportedly insisted that the concerts be cancelled if the police did not provide a police escort. VIP protection is usually reserved for senior royals and politicians, but senior police officers appear to have agreed after the personal intervention of Home Secretary Yvette Cooper and Mayor of London Sadiq Khan.
Furthermore, even before the controversy over Taylor's security came to light, Labour Party politicians had been criticised for gobbling up freebies (free tickets). Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Mayor Khan were reportedly among those who received free tickets to the Wembley concert.
