A Primal Scream concert has been cancelled over claims antisemitic imagery was shown on stage at a previous gig.

The rock band had been due to perform at the Trentham Live festival at the Trentham Estate, Stoke-on-Trent, on 21 August 2026.

"But following criticism of a film screened at a concert in London, the festival's organiser said it had cancelled the performance as the graphics used did not align with its values"

Is antisemitism this rife or are Jews actually this persecuted, or is it a persecution complex?

Any condemnation of the genocidal actions of the Israeli state is, incorrectly and deliberately, called out as anti-semitism by the Israeli government and supporters which, in itself, seems to be actually fuelling genuine anti-semitism.

Any support of Palestinians, similarly, is claimed to be support for Hamas, anti-semetic and in favour of the killing of Israelis. It's spasticated carry on but you can't just steal land and try to destroy a population and not expect some level of blow-back, no matter how hard you try to spin it.

How the tide has swung. Towards the start of this thread I feared what banning/censoring books would lead to. We're still banning/censoring books/education but it's turned 180.

Yup. It's all so predictable too.

He's baaaack!

He did say he would be back haha. How the hell are they gonna sort that out?

[Emphyrio]

He was only let out to prepare for whatever appeal he's got coming up. If ever there was evidence that our prison system is too benign, it's shown by this idiot's inability to refrain from actions that'll send him back inside.

Good man Enoch.

The lad is clearly not right in the head, probably should just get home sectioned at this point

The article is paywalled, what is he actually doing when he turns up at the school?

Someone should have slagged him that he was late to work this morning 

Out pontificating at the gates with his righteous Christian hand gestures makes my blood boil as he has no shame or respect for anyone or anything else at all.

He brings holier than thou to a whole new level, blame the parents. Not exactly a poster child for the merits of home schooling I guess.

Today he walked in the gates and was stopped by security. So turns around and preaches away to the media and his delusional supporters at the gates.
