More concerts canceled in Germany after the controversy of “killing your deputy”

The largest organization representing Jews in the United Kingdom called Glastonbury to cancel the group’s expected performance.

In a statement, the British Jews’ Council of Deputies said that the Rap trio remarks had “caused a great concern both within the British Jewish community and the broader society”.

Speaking on Tuesday on the prospective time of Rté, the group’s manager said that “moral hysteria” had settled and that the group was held at a higher moral standard than politicians.

Daniel Lambert said that a “concerted campaign” against the group concerns “only platform artists”.

“It is about telling the next young group, both by the music industry and through the political class, that you cannot talk about Palestine,” he said.

A number of other artists have signed a joint declaration in support of the ball joint.

FONTAINES DC, Annie Mac, BIPE, Massive Attack and Christy Moore are among the artists who have signed the letter open by the Kneceecap label, Heavenly Recordings.

The press release said there was a “clear and concerted attempt to censor and, ultimately, the group”.

He accused “political figures” in Westminster and in the British media of being “openly engaged in a campaign to remove the ball joint from the public”.

“As artists, we feel the need to record our opposition to any political repression of artistic freedom,” added the press release.

“In a democracy, no political personality or political party should have the right to dictate who does and does not play in music festivals or concerts that will be appreciated by thousands of people.”

After canceling the concerts, the group’s director said: “It is not for us to worry, it is for us to have the strength of conviction that we did the right thing.”

He added that going to Coachella was the right thing to do, and “it all emerged.”

The personality of television Sharon Osbourne called for the revocation of American working visas of the group after their performance at the Coachella Music Festival in California earlier this month, where they describes the military action of Israel in Gaza as a genocide funded by the United States.

The planned appearances at Hurricane and Southsoid festivals, also in Germany, were canceled last week.

“I have already spoken to some of the advisory officers and I hope that the necessary measures will be taken. We must give an example,” he said.

“We would send the bad message if we had to allow this group to move forward with their event.”

The Democratic Unionist Party called for a meeting of the Emergency Municipal Council.

“Quoting concerns about” dangerous rhetoric “, the glorification of terrorism and incentive to violence, we insist that such acts should not be plateaus on land belonging to the Council,” said the party.

A spokesperson for the municipal council of Belfast said: “The use of the place of these events is managed via a legal agreement between the Council and the Promoter. Event programming remains the case for the organizers.

“Any question that an elected member wishes to raise would be examined by the competent committee and the complete advice.”

In a declaration on X, the group said that “an extract from sequences, deliberately removed from any context, is now exploited and armed, as if it were a call for action”.

They also described some of the “smear campaign” and said that it was “a transparent effort to derail the real conversation” far from their “love” messages and support for Palestine.

They added: “To the Amess and Cox families, we send our sincere apology, we never intended to hurt you.”

On Tuesday, the husband of the assassinated deputy Jo Cox called the kneecap to give a “Real excuses”.

Brendan Cox, whose woman was killed in June 2016, said it was “only half of the apology”.
