UK government condemns 'death to the IDF' chants at Glastonbury
Sunday, 29 June 2025 The UK government has criticized the BBC and Glastonbury for broadcasting anti-Israel sentiments expressed by musicians during the festival. Police are investigating rapper Bobby Vylan's chants of "Death to the IDF" and Kneecap's pro-Palestine stance, including a member's T-shirt supporting a group facing a UK terror ban.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting says chants at Glastonbury calling for “death to the IDF” were “a disgrace” and unhelpful to the Palestinian cause. He says the government is speaking to the BBC about how the comments were broadcast and remains focused on ending the conflict.
