Disappointed on a personal level as I was looking forward to seeing them with Fontaines DC

You can’t go around waving Hezzbolah flags. Disappointed in them.

The “only good Tory is a dead Tory” news I pushed aside as I get the context, but Hezbolah are Iranian backed terror group more interested in genocide.

And let’s not conflate this with what Netanyahu is doing.

Ultimately you probably can’t get away with that, but I will say I’ve seen two bands wave an ISIS flag on stage and they are still touring, and have NEVER been charged. It does seem that people are picking and choosing here.

Agree, people, in this example being the met police and CPS.
If it’s a crime, it’s a crime no matter who or what it is

I think "not conflating" are wise words, else you've gone all Tommy Robinson on us.

The police (god bless 'em) just upholding the law, just like they did in Southport. Unless Kneecap are now just "political" prisoners too ?

Here we go the classic smirking centrist response, as free speech gets criminalised in this country - just obey your masters
