Very British to do something like that. BBC did the same thing with RATM when they asked them not to do the "fuck you I won't do what you tell me" part, and then they did it anyway.

- they could have complied by changing the fuck to other (hopefully worse) profanities.
  
  "You dumb cunt, I won't do what you tell me"
  Yeah that'd work (I'm not very creative, just the first one I thought of that sounded lyrically right)
"Event organisers" put on a punk band and then are surprised when they do something controversial? Dumb, spineless cunts.
So glad my tax money is funding the filth that are wasting time "investigating" shit like this and arresting people that protest a genocide and support Palestine Action. Fuck the police and fuck this shitty country.
It's Bob Vylan. Why oh why are these guys writing those articles but leaving out the band name from the damn headline. "A band did this", "Singer did that". They name them in the article but jeez. Just put it in the title!
- Their name is right there in the title. OP changed it.
Sounds like they’re more popular than ever and event organisers should capitalise on that with sold out events.
Hey OP, why the fuck did you change the title to remove the band name?
- Because I wanted more people to see how the band is being mistreated. Take your piss poor attitude elsewhere. Maybe I shouldn’t have posted the article in the first place if you’re going to act like that because you didn’t like the title. Also depending on a lot of clients you can already see the original title in the preview. I wanted more people to read the story instead of potentially glossing over it.
  Take your anger and direct at the Zionists.
  
  How does removing the band name help?
Death death to the IDF
