Glastonbury Festival says it is 'appalled' by punk duo Bob Vylan comments after controversy
Glastonbury Festival organisers say they are "appalled" by comments made by punk duo Bob Vylan during their set on Saturday - and it "very much crossed a line"
The punk duo led chants of "death" to Israel's military; the government has condemned them and said the BBC faces questions for broadcasting it, while police say they are assessing the footage

The major question is why the BBC broadcast it live.

Sir Keir Starmer has condemned the “appalling hate speech” against Israeli soldiers used by rap group Bob Vylan at Glastonbury.
The Prime Minister said the BBC had questions to answer over its live broadcast of the duo’s performance on Saturday.
His intervention comes amid mounting fury at the BBC for not ending the live broadcast when the rappers led thousands of revellers in chanting, “death, death to the IDF!”
Sir Keir told The Telegraph: “There is no excuse for this kind of appalling hate speech.
“I said that Kneecap should not be given a platform and that goes for any other performers making threats or inciting violence.
“The BBC needs to explain how these scenes came to be broadcast.”

I think the whole festival was broadcast live and is available to watch afterward too, except this bit - they pulled it.

So we cannot broadcast anything live anymore because someone may say something inappropriate? Or have a wardrobe malfunction? Of the president drops the F bomb? They do t know what the F they are doing!
