Councillor Ken O’Flynn calls for ‘We Are Cork’ branding spend refund

The councillor who led criticism of the We Are Cork branding exercise wants the city to ask for a refund from the consultants who worked on the logo.

Fianna Fáil councillor Ken O’Flynn made the call last night after city council chief executive Ann Doherty addressed the controversy following the Irish Examiner’s revelations that the initiative’s logo bears remarkable similarities to a British chef’s group and to a cultural initiative in Barcelona.
