The Royal Photographic Society’s collection at the National Media Museum in Bradford is to be moved to London in “an appalling act of cultural vandalism” after museum grandees decided to ignore protests over its relocation.

The move will see 312,000 objects from the RPS collection transferred to the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London to create an “international photography resource centre”. A further 85,000 could also be moved.
