The largest body representing the Jews in Britain called on Glastonbury to cancel the organization's program performance.

The British Jewish Representative Committee said in a statement that the speech of the rap trio “has attracted great attention in the British Jewish community and in the wider society”.

Speaking on Tuesday's prime time RTé, the band's manager said that "moral hysteria" is over and that the band has a higher moral standard than politicians.

Daniel Lambert claims that the "unanimous campaign" against the organization is "only about off-Taiwan artists."

“It’s about telling the next young band through the music industry and the political class, you can’t talk about Palestine,” he said.

Many other artists have signed a joint statement in support of Kneecap.

Fontaines DC, Annie Mac, Biceps, Mass Attack and Christy Moore are all one of the artists who signed an open letter by Kneecap’s record company Heavenly Recordings.

The statement said there was a "clear, consistent attempt to review and eventually dry up" the band.

It accused Westminster and the British media of "openly participating in the campaign to remove Kneecap from the public's eyes".

"As artists, we feel the need to object to any political repression of artistic freedom," the statement added.

“In a democratic country, no politician or party should have the right to decide who plays it at a music festival or performance, and thousands of people will enjoy it.”

"It's not something that worries us, it's the power to convince us that we do the right thing," the band's manager said during the cancellation of the show.

He added that going to Coachella was the right choice, "all of which came out of it".

TV celebrity Sharon Osbourne called on the band’s U.S. work visa to be revoked after performing at the Coachella Festival in California earlier this month, describing Israel’s military operations in Gaza as a U.S.-funded genocide.

Booked appearances for the hurricane and Southside festival in Germany were cancelled last week.

The performances at the Cornwall Eden Project have also been cancelled.

A spokesman for Eden Conference Limited said on Tuesday: “The ticket purchaser will be contacted directly and will be fully refunded.”

The band will support Fontaines DC in August on the Boucher competition field in Belfast.

Speaking on the BBC Radio's Nolan Show, Ulster Coalition Belfast Councilman Jim Rodgers said "serious consideration should be taken into account" about whether the concert should continue.

"I have spoken to some council officials and I hope that the necessary action will be taken. We must lead by example," he said.

“If we are going to allow the group to continue their activities, we will send out the wrong message.”

The Democratic League party calls for an emergency city council meeting.

"Cite concerns about 'dangerous remarks, glorious terrorism and incitement of violence, we insist that such behavior should not be platformed on the land owned by the Council," the party said.

A spokesman for the Belfast City Council said: “The venues for these events are managed through legal agreements between the council and the sponsors. Event programs remain an issue for organizers.

“Anything that the elected member wishes to propose will be considered by the relevant committee and the full council.”

Kneecap is an Irish-talking rap three who faced controversy with provocative lyrics and merchandise.

The group was founded in 2017 by three friends, who were founded under the stage names of Mo Chara, MóglaíBap and DjPróvaí.

Their reputation inspired a semi-fiction film starring Oscar-nominated actor Michael Fassbender.

The film won the British Film Academy Award (BAFTA) in February 2025.

Last week, during a show in November 2023, the West Belfast trio appeared in a video that seemed to say to one of the band: "The only good Conservative party is a dead Conservative party. Kill your local MP."

The daughter of conservative MP David Amess, whose father was stabbed to death during a constituency surgery, demanded an apology from Kneecap.

"Excerpts of videos intentionally taken from all situations are being exploited and weapons, as if they were called for action," the band said in a statement on X.

They also called some of these rebounds a “smear movement” and said it was a “transparent effort to make the real dialogue “start out of their “love” message and support for Palestine.

They added: “We send us a heartfelt apology to Americans and Cox’s family, and we never intend to hurt you.”

On Tuesday, the husband of murdered Congressman Jo Cox called on Ken Keecap to make a "real apology."

Brendan Cox was killed in June 2016 and he said it was only "half the apology."

None of the members of KNEECAP have been charged with any crime.
