Sorry, Anniebach, I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to get that with that remark. I've quite clearly stated that I'm not condoning what was said. I'm just pointing out that both acts were already well known for their very forthright political views, so the organisers knew exactly what they were letting themselves in for.
Political views or not what they done was wrong, no ifs nor buts just out and out wrong!
Imagine being Jewish in that crowd…
Again, for the sake of clarity, I'm NOT condoning what was said. I'm making no excuses for either act at all.
However, the whole furore reminds me of when the Sex Pistols appeared on Bill Grundy's show and the outrage which followed.
The TV people knew exactly what they were doing when they got them on the show - they wanted them to do something outrageous, and it worked. Same thing here. You'd have to have been living in a box not to know what both Kneecap and Bob Vylan were likely to do when they got on stage at Glastonbury. If the organisers are claiming otherwise, they're lying through their teeth.
