Rod Stewart Faces Backlash After Voicing Support For Nigel Farage In Run-Up To Glastonbury

Sir Rod Stewart found himself at the centre of backlash in the lead-up to his Glastonbury set this weekend when he shared his take that people have 'got to give' Reform leader Nigel Farage 'a chance'. On Sunday afternoon, the legendary crooner had one of this year's most anticipated Glastonbury sets, performing in the so-called 'Legends' slot. However, the day before he was due to perform, The Times published an interview with Sir Rod which left many people feeling less enthused at the prospect of seeing him perform. During the interview Sir Rod was asked for his take on the current political situation in the UK. 'It's hard for me because I'm extremely wealthy, and I deserve to be, so a lot of it doesn't really touch me,' he said. 'But that doesn't mean I'm out of touch. 'For instance, I've read about Starmer cutting off the fishing in Scotland and giving it back to the EU. That hasn't made him popular. We're fed up with the Tories. We've got to give Farage a chance. He's coming across well.' Sir Rod added: 'What options have we got? I know some of his family, I know his brother, and I quite like him.' When The Times' reporter suggested Farage represented 'Brexit, tightened immigration policies and unrealistic economic promises', the Maggie May singer responded: 'Yeah, yeah. But Starmer's all about getting us out of Brexit and I don't know how he's going to do that. 'Still, the country will survive. It could be worse. We could be in the Gaza Strip.' I'm one of the biggest Rod Stewart fans around.I was delighted to read last week that he called out Trump and having read the full quote, I agree that we need alternatives to the two main parties in this country.

(2/3) — Red Labour (@RedLabour_) June 28, 2025 We don't need to 'try' a populist who fuels hate; we need leaders who ~lift up the marginalized~ *invest in our communities and public services, improve all of our lives , not exploit ~them~ the *migrant or vulnerable* for votes.

But if someone turned up at Glastonbury and played the theme tune to Cagney & Lacey on the theremin for two hours during his set, and more festival-goers went to watch that instead, I would find that most amusing. — Moog (@a_toots) June 29, 2025 Many also took the opportunity to repost comments attributed to Sir Rod in 1970, in which he supported Enoch Powell and suggested that the UK is 'overcrowded' and that 'immigrants should be sent home'. Rod Stewart has come out in support of Reform and Nigel Farage? What a surprise... Here is an interview with Rod Stewart (International Times No 94 December 17-31 1970) 🤔 — Matthew Black (@NoirMJ) June 27, 2025 Until recently, Sir Rod had been a supporter of the Conservative Party in the UK, most recently endorsing Boris Johnson in the 2019 general election. After conceding last year in another Times interview that Johnson had 'turned out to be a lying fucking public schoolboy', he voiced the opinion that Keir Starmer's Labour party 'deserved a crack at' running the country.

UK punk-rap duo sparks outrage with anti-Israel chants at major music festival

A punk-rap duo out of the United Kingdom that shouted, "Death to the IDF," and "Free Palestine" during their set at the Glastonbury Festival, is now being condemned by political and festival officials for their actions. London-based Bob Vylan describes itself on X as the "prettiest punk/rap/alt thing you'll ever meet." With songs like "We Live Here," "Dream Bigger," "Makes Me Violent," and "Terms & Conditions," the duo mixes elements of rap and punk. The duo performed a high-energy set at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday, whic ultimately turned into a political podium for the group's singer to shout out anti-Israel rhetoric. While holding the microphone, singer Bobby Vylan shouted, "Death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]," several times before turning the microphone toward the crowd to get attendees to repeat the chant. The IDF is the national military of Israel. Videos from the crowd's view showed several Palestinian flags waving as the performer and attendees shouted back and forth. Rapper Pulls Out Of Music Festivals Alleging They Wanted Her To Make 'Free Palestine' Statements Onstage At one point, Vylan shouted "Free, Free, Free Palestine," and again, had some in the crowd repeat what he said. Read On The Fox News App Before returning to his set, though, Vylan ended the chant and said, "Hell yeah, from the river to the sea. Palestine must be, will be inshallah, it will be free." Videos of the chants spread across the internet like crazy, and now British police in Somerset and Avon are reviewing the videos to "determine whether any offenses may have been committed that would require a criminal investigation." EX-MUMFORD & SONS GUITARIST CRITICIZES MUSIC INDUSTRY FOR SILENCE AFTER BOULDER ANTISEMITIC ATTACK The BBC reported that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned Bob Vylan for calling on the death of Israeli troops with the use of "appalling hate speech." The BBC, which broadcast the festival live, has reportedly chosen to remove the duo's set from its iPlayer. The BBC said it issued a warning on screen about "very strong and discriminatory language" during the live stream, The Associated Press reported. Festival organizers did not take the comments lightly and have since released a statement on Instagram saying, "Glastonbury Festival was created in 1970 as a place for people to come together and rejoice in music, the arts and the best of human endeavour." Retired Uk Police Officer Suing After Being Arrested Over 'Thought Crime' Post On Social Media "As a festival, we stand against all forms of war and terrorism. We will always believe in - and actively campaign for - hope, unity, peace and love," the statement read. "With almost 4,000 performances at Glastonbury 2025, there will inevitably be artists and speakers appearing on our stages whose views we do not share, and a performer's presence here should never be seen as a tacit endorsement of their opinions and beliefs. "However, we are appalled by the statements made from the West Holts stage by Bob Vylan yesterday," the statement continued. "Their chants very much crossed a line and we are urgently reminding everyone involved in the production of the Festival that there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence." Another group, Kneecap, also performed on Saturday despite a terror charge for one of its members over allegedly supporting Hezbollah. During the performance, Kneecap led a huge crowd in chants of "Free Palestine." Famously known as Britain's biggest summer music festival, Glastonbury draws a crowd of nearly 200,000 music fans every year to Worthy Farm in southwest England. About 4,000 acts perform during the festival on 120 stages. The Associated Press contributed to this article source: UK punk-rap duo sparks outrage with anti-Israel chants at major music festival
