FM calls on TRNSMT to axe band at centre of storm
RAP trio Kneecap said condemnation from Downing Street and Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch is an “effort to derail the real conversation” about Gaza.
Badenoch called for a member of the group to be prosecuted after a video emerged from a November 2023 gig, appearing to show him saying: “The only good Tory is a dead Tory. Kill your local MP.”
