Bob Vylan Issues Glastonbury Death Chant Statement on Social Media After Huge Backlash

  • At Glastonbury Festival’s West Holts Stage on Saturday, punk duo Bob Vylan prompted the crowd to repeatedly shout a call for the destruction of the Israeli military, leading to a strong public backlash.
  • The chants and comments crossed a line according to Glastonbury organisers, who condemned the remarks on Sunday and stood against war and terrorism.
  • BBC broadcast the set live on iPlayer with an on-screen warning about strong language but later decided not to rebroadcast or provide on-demand access to the performance.
  • Health Secretary Wes Streeting and Sir Keir Starmer described the footage as "appalling," while Avon and Somerset Police began reviewing footage to assess if criminal offences occurred.
  • Bob Vylan responded defiantly on Instagram, urging political activism and teaching children to speak up for change despite receiving mixed public reactions.
