Kneecap Defies British Government Appeal
Update: 2026-01-01
Description
Kneecap, an Irish rap trio, vows to continue advocating for Palestine despite the British governments appeal of a dropped terrorism charge against member Liam Og O hAnnaidh. The charge stemmed from displaying a Hezbollah flag at a gig, but was dismissed due to a filing error. The Crown Prosecution Service plans to challenge the ruling, citing legal precedent. Kneecap sees the appeal as an attempt to silence dissenting voices, particularly in light of Israels ban on aid groups. The case will be heard at the High Court in London on January 14th.
