"The British government has blocked Ye from entry on the grounds that his presence would not be conducive to the public good...."

"Prime Minister Keir Starmer called it 'deeply concerning' that Ye was scheduled to perform 'despite his previous antisemitic remarks and celebration of Nazism.' 'Antisemitism in any form is abhorrent and must be confronted clearly and firmly wherever it appears... Everyone has a responsibility to ensure Britain is a place where Jewish people feel safe and secure.'"

I'm reading "London music festival canceled after Britain bans headliner Kanye West/The move comes after days of mounting controversy over past antisemitic statements made by the rapper, now known as Ye" (WaPo).

West has apologized and stated "I love Jewish people," but he did sell swastika T-shirts and release a song called "Heil Hitler."

Spinal Tap and 'Fear of a Black Hat' come to life!

"We're not anti-white."

"But your latest album is called 'Kill Whitey'...."

If only Starmer had said "and there will be no Stonehenge reconstructions, big or small, on any UK stage, either!" CC, JSM

Prince Harry wore a Nazi uniform to a party in 2005, but he can probably enter England OK.

Christopher B કહ્યું...

Paraphrasing from Howard, antisemitism they don't like.

Peachy કહ્યું...

LOL. The Islamic Republic of the UK cannot handle a black rap star who said dumb sh*t once?

Please. Starmer is a theater kid.

tommyesq કહ્યું...

Everyone has a responsibility to ensure Britain is a place where Jewish people feel safe and secure.

Unless, of course, young Jewish kids are being groomed/raped. Then they are on their own.

baghdadbob કહ્યું...

Kanye should simply join a Pakistani Rape Gang. He'd be welcomed with open arms.

tim maguire કહ્યું...

"Antisemitism in any form is abhorrent except for the Islamic kind, which is pretty great, if you ask me"

Peachy કહ્યું...

Leftwing power whores who allow Islamic males to do whatever they want in the UK in exchange for votes...

Big Mike કહ્યું...

It’s the darkness of his skin — the Labour government itself contains plenty of antisemites. If his skin had been the same shade of brown as your average Paki he’d have been okay.

Lazarus કહ્યું...

Will Michael Savage, also put on Britain's baddy list, send condolences to Ye?

Howard કહ્યું...

Rearranging the deck chairs...

Peachy કહ્યું...

"re-arranging the deck chairs" ? huh? why would that tired phase be useful here?

gspencer કહ્યું...

"Everyone has a responsibility to ensure Britain is a place where Jewish people feel safe and secure.'"

Starmer, in league with his predecessors, said that with a straight face after bringing in millions of seething, welfare-dependent, Jew-hating Muzzies?

Enigma કહ્યું...

They feared Ye would attract the Palestinian and Iranian crowd. Greta Thunberg would have brought along all her autistic friends and the blue octopuses.

It would have been a glorious farce.

Peachy કહ્યું...

gspencer - Indeed he did. We noticed.

Easy to take in out on YE - because didn't YE once support Trump? YE is tainted!

narciso કહ્યું...

And lammy the twit who was foreign minister

Mike (MJB Wolf) કહ્યું...

It is highly ironic given they bend over backward to ignore islamic hate crimes. Every day. And prosecute Brits who complain about muslim crime.

The queen is dead.

JAORE કહ્યું...

"... he did sell swastika T-shirts and release a song called "Heil Hitler."
So you're saying he's now a Democrat. Did he get the tattoo?

Jupiter કહ્યું...

"why would that tired phase be useful here?"
I think Howard was suggesting that Starmer's efforts to save Britain from the rising tide of antisemitism by excluding Kanye West is unlikely to prove effective.

Jupiter કહ્યું...

And perhaps also that the UK is a sinking ship.

Joe Bar કહ્યું...

Ye's "Heil Hitler" song is actually pretty good, if you listen to what he's saying.

Levi Starks કહ્યું...

As punishment I’m going to require Starmer to watch a Monty Python movie a day until he’s finished the entire collection.
And also I just realized while saying it mi my head with a German accent how funny “Keir Starmer” sounds.

CJinPA કહ્યું...

This should make it easier for people who want to ban Muslims from the West.

Titanic = UK
Ship's Captain = Starmer
Iceberg = Millions of anti-Semites imported into the country
A couple of deck chairs = Kanye West

The Secretary for Men's Behavior Change.

Can you imagine the reaction to the creation of a new Secretary For Women's Behavior Change?

Howard કહ્યું...

April's pretty slow on the uptake. Given the flooding of antisemitism Muslims rammed through the hull of England with glee by the Labour party, they decided to ban little old contrite mental midget Ye.

So yeah, Starmer is straining gnats while letting camels pass (pun completely accidental). Do you get me, sweetheart?

Come on man. Everyone knows the iceberg is Jewish. It's right there in the name. Goldberg, Steinberg, Iceberg.

Saint Croix કહ્યું...

Jaime, you need a drummer.

Here is Gilbert Gottfried, trying to tell a Jewish joke to Bob Costas, on the air.

I almost missed the punchline (starts at 6:42). But the amusing part is Bob Costas crawling on the floor, trying to run away. And Gottfried laughing so hard at his own joke, he has trouble finishing it.

The last two minutes is Bob Costas, which is pretty funny.

Islam is worse than Nazism. England is an old bitch gone in the teeth. A King with saggy breasts and a Rent Boy Prime Minister.

Kanye Isn't a Threat To British Jews

That's a very good article.

Saint Croix કહ્યું...

I've been giving Starmer a hard time. But I think he legitimately does not like anti-Semites. Antisemitism: recent government actions and next steps. I also found out that he evicted Jeremy Corbyn from the Labour party. Good for him.

Nonetheless, his immigration policies are a liberal disaster. And instead of fixing its immigration problem, the UK decided to start punishing speech crimes on the internet. "Stop the music and the artists, that will fix it."

RCOCEAN II કહ્યું...

"Everyone has a responsibility to ensure Britain is a place where Jewish people feel safe and secure.'"

What a ridiculous thing to say. Does "everyone" have a responsibility to make sure Britian is a "safe and secure place" for Catholics, Muslims, or Hindus? Do Jews in Britain have "responsibility" to make sure Anglicans are "Safe and secure"?
What about atheists, are they feeling OK? If not, Starmer had better get on the job.

Even more absurd is the idea that Ye, a rich American musician, is a threat to anyone.

Looking at the crime stats, the rape gangs, and the lenient sentences handed out, it seems Starmer isn't interested in making England a "Safe and comfortable place" for average Britions. Which is one reason why Labour is going to be wiped out in the next election.

RCOCEAN II કહ્યું...

Of course if you read the UK newspapers online, you know England is now a country where you sentenced to 3 years for a "racist tweet" while muggers and burglars get probation and light sentences. Even the Rape Gangs get off lightly. Literally insanity fair.

narciso કહ્યું...

Did they ban that hamas fanboi musician (rhetorical)

Indefinitely Extended Excursion™️ કહ્યું...

A bad day for the bipolar.

If only he had claimed mild anxiety instead -- the government would have given him a PIP payment, a new car on mobility, and sent him on his way.

Seamus કહ્યું...

So Keir finally found a foreigner he didn't want to let into the country.
