Art isn’t some sideshow to be tolerated when it’s safe and censored when it is not. That’s the whole point. Art is a mirror. A weapon. A reckoning. Too many in the British establishment don’t want a reckoning. They want obedience. They don’t mind political speech – so long as it’s theirs. They don’t mind outrage – so long as it’s directed at the powerless. They don’t mind protests – as long as it’s their side making the noise. What Mo Chara is alleged to have done is not dangerous. Nobody at a concert in London is going to go and sign up for Hezbollah. His treatment reeks of an attitude that tells every young artist, every working-class kid with something to say, to shut up. Just sing the hits. Smile. And the charging of Mo Chara won’t shut him up, or what he stands for. That voice is too loud, too real, and too deep-rooted to kill off.
Hats off to Mr Andy Twelves.
