Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what discussions her Department has had with Glastonbury Festival organisers on the inclusion of Kneecap in the 2025 line-up.

Decisions on which artists perform at events and festivals are a matter for event organisers, who must take into account any legal considerations, and meet the requirements of their license, in consultation with relevant authorities.

We unequivocally condemn threatening remarks made towards any individual. Political intimidation and abuse must have no place in our society. We recognise the chilling effect that harassment and intimidation of elected representatives can have on our democracy. Support for proscribed organisations is wholly unacceptable, with criminal offences set out in the Terrorism Act 2000.
