I know this is only loosely Kneecap adjacent but just had to dump it somewhere 🤣🤣🤣. How's this slippery b glide through life like that.
The jury were advised that they weren't litigating on his role in the IRA - they were told to consider whether the BBC had presented the allegation as fact or not (because the BBC's defence was that it was just an allegation).

Having said that, the disclaimer at the end of every episode of Say Nothing ("Gerry Adams has always denied being a member of the IRA or participating in any IRA-related violence"), which I kind of thought was for comedy value, now seems to be more of a necessary move. The makers of that clearly thought it was less risky to definitively name the (alleged!) shooter of Jean McConville, but last I heard, Marian Price was suing Disney anyway.

That popping sound you can hear is Tory heads pinging off all over the Home Counties about where their TV licence fee money is going.

I first saw Kneecap at the Galway Arts Festival last Summer and it's actually INSANE how big they've gotten in just a year! Fell in love with them after that gig and seeing their movie. I love how they're using their voices and refused to be bullied into submission. Even donating proceeds of gigs to charities, doing free gigs and selling tickets for £32(26+6) 😂 They're unreal. It pissed me off so much how BBC and other British Media tried to anglicize Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh,'s name. They can't stop free speech, and it's so clear this band are being used as a scapegoat. Politicians getting mad at Kneecap instead of the actual GENOCIDE should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.

Ah what a blissful noise on a Friday afternoon. And then taxpayer money on the case and hopefully taxpayer money when Kneecap on Glasto is on BBC......

Anyone in London who isn’t in the WhatsApp channel…

(although I’m not sure why I’m sharing and lowering my chances of getting tickets!)

All the pressure, pearl clutching and performative outrage hasn’t worked. Oh dear!

Can you imagine the state of some of the glasto VIPs singing along ‘get your brits out’ in their plummy accents 🤣

Kneecap have already performed in 2023 and 2024, most of their gigs are in Britain so I think they’re well used to it by now.

There could be an unscheduled court appearance to put a damper on things 😏
