Rejected petition Ban irish rap group Kneecap from performing at the Green man festival in Wales next month.

Kneecap have repeatedly used antisemitic rhetoric on stage, most recently at Glastonbury. They have also incited violence against MP's and shown support for a terrorist organisation which is a criminal offence.

More details
