Default N.Ireland : Rap Group Kneecap said "kill a tory" : they have said sorry






[Footage of rap group Kneecap calling for the
death of British MPs is being assessed
by counter-terrorism police.
A video has emerged of the west
Belfast trio at a November 2023 gig
appearing to show one person from the
band saying: "The only good Tory is a dead Tory.
Kill your local MP."

The Metropolitan Police also said that another
video, from November last year,
is being assessed. The footage appeared
to show a band member shouting "up Hamas,
up Hezbollah" at a performance in London.

Kneecap have said on social media that they
have "faced a co-ordinated smear campaign".

Both Hamas and Hezbollah, external are
banned in the UK and it is a crime to express
support for them.

A Met Police spokesperson said:
"We were made aware of a video on 22 April,
believed to be from an event in November 2024,
and it has been referred to the
Counter Terrorism Internet Referral
Unit (CTIRU) for assessment and to determine
whether any further police investigation
may be required.

"We have also been made aware of another
video believed to be from an event in
November 2023."
A UK government spokesman
said: "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.

"All reports of intimidation, harassment
and threats are taken extremely seriously.
We work with the police and Parliament
to do everything in our power to crack down
on threats to elected officials."

Democratic Unionist Party leader
Gavin Robinson called for Kneecap
to be investigated.

"Promoting sectarianism, glorifying
violence and spreading division under
the guise of "art" is still hate,"

the Belfast East MP said in a post on X.

None of the members of the group have
been charged with any offences.

One is wearing a white cap and a
black and white Nike tracksuit.
He is holding a microphone.
The other man, on the right, is also holding
a microphone, he is wearing a black Nike cap,
sunglasses, a green camouflage jacket
and black trousers.]
