Footage of Kneecap gig in London being assessed by counter-terrorism police

Clips shared online by Danny Morris from the Community Security Trust reveal alarming behavior at a performance where a group member openly supported Hamas and Hezbollah, both banned in the UK. This led to the Metropolitan Police being notified, who are assessing the situation to see if further investigation is necessary. Additionally, the band Kneecap faced backlash for their controversial performance at Coachella, where they made provocative statements against Israel, igniting discussions on free speech and the legal implications of expressing support for extremist groups.

A Met Police spokesperson stated, "We have been made aware of the video and it has been referred to the Counter Terrorism Internet Referral Unit for assessment."

Clips from Danny Morris show a group member shouting 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah' at a performance, raising concerns about expressing support for banned groups.
