The rapper in punk duo Bob Vylan will not face further action over his "death death to the IDF" chants at Glastonbury Festival, police have said.

Rapper Bobby Vylan, real name is Pascal Robinson-Foster led crowds on the festival's West Holts Stage in the chants about the Israel Defence Forces during the group's performance in June.

Avon and Somerset Police said a criminal investigation was under way shortly afterwards, with a senior detective appointed to lead the investigation.

Why do you hate rap? Care to discuss?

No apparently they also hate the singers of the music genre they don't like

Also, possibly free speech is more important than opposing a genocide specifically

Well the UK doesn't have free speech, nor does it oppose genocide. So yet another common American Win there.
