I’m surprised the UK gov blocked Kanye from entering, I’m impressed! Really sucks to be in charge of that festival tho. I wonder with all the backlash if they’re gonna get fired?
Edit to the commenter: I’m not AI, I’m just genuinely shocked the UK gov has a backbone to block Kanye despite his previous vile comments.
I also don’t pity the person in charge of the festival, I just meant that I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes right now. He deserves whatever backlash he gets from the head honchos.

Jeffrey Epstein was never blocked from entering the UK, Prince Andrew is still walking free, and Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog got the red carpet rolled out for him when he met Keir Starmer, but it’s Kanye who is blocked. How good is the UK!

Please block all of the U.S and Israeli war criminals next!

Lol, yet they never banned or blocked Epstein from traveling after his conviction

If he’s really turned over a new leaf like he said, then he should have no problem with this decision and use this to movie forward 🤷♂️

Now he’s peers in another way with the guy who created Stormfront, the Westboro Baptist Church, and other religious bigots, congrats to the UK.

The only thing I find humor in with this is the fact that the person who signed off on blocking his entry probably shares all the same views as him 😂 I doubt this was a moral stance from the UK. I’ll take it though, fuck Kanye lol

Can the UK chain SportsDirect now finally stop advertising his shoes in the windows of their shops?

Just feels like silly virtue signaling, like Pepsi and PayPal pulling out of the festival. Nobody had a problem until people made a stink about it and suddenly it’s “Oh no we gotta ban this guy”.
Not that I support Kanye’s views, but it’s telling who is and isn’t banned to travel to the UK

This might have been the correct decision but you should then keep that same energy for all people. We still have problematic celebrities and genocidal/pedophilic politicians allowed entry. If we’re going to ban Kanye, then ban everyone else.

Excellent.
We let Trump in. To Scotland even, the best part.
