A string of bands have pulled out of a UK music festival hours before they were due to perform after Irish band The Mary Wallopers said they were “cut off” for displaying a Palestinian flag.The Last Dinner Party, Cliffords and The Academic announced on Saturday that they would no longer be performing at the Victorious festival in Portsmouth following Friday’s incident.…Rock band The Last Dinner Party said they would boycott the festival in a statement shared on their Instagram page: “We are outraged by the decision made to silence The Mary Wallopers yesterday at Victorious. As a band we cannot cosign political censorship and will therefore be boycotting the festival today.”…Rock band The Academic have also pulled out of the festival, saying they could not “in good conscience” perform at “a festival that silences free speech”. Irish band Cliffords said they “refuse to play if we are to be censored for showing our support to the people of Palestine”.https://www.irishtimes.com/world/uk/2025/08/23/mary-wallopers-claim-they-were-cut-off-at-uk-festival-for-displaying-palestinian-flag/#Palestine #Gaza #WestBank #solidarity #israel #genocide #victoriousFestival
