West was due to headline the festival in July but drew criticism over past antisemitic comments.

Well the point is that he should never have been the headline to start with.
And now all the sponsors have pulled out, because they don’t want to be associated with a festival that is promoting a person like Kanye.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
