What makes international political solidarity possible? A great panel discussion this morning #MBS2026 making the case for taking sensory experiences (esp. music), intimacy (via international visits) & friendship (challenging its gendered associations with women) seriously in international history.
![Police in Somerset say they are assessing comments made on stage by rap punk duo Bob Vylan and Irish-language rap group Kneecap at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday.
The government has "strongly condemned" chants from Bob Vylan who called for "death" to the Israeli military during their performance which was broadcast live on the BBC.
Rapper Bobby Vylan led chants of "free, free Palestine" and "death, death to the IDF [lsrael
Defense Forces]".
A BBC spokesperson said some of the comments were "deeply offensive", adding it had issued a warning on screen about "very strong and discriminatory language". The set will not be available to rewatch on BBC iPlayer.
The Israeli Embassy posted on the social media site X that it was "deeply disturbed by the inflammatory and hateful rhetoric".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iybvm2uwpxfrwg7emykdx72b/bafkreia4byo2ujfe5eerk4mv2q2v7whgoepcbihzwornucfcvyetzmvrqu)
