Totally agree! We don’t want Trump or Vance here nor all this nonsense. At the end of the day who do they think they are and who is paying for all the security by English and Scottish police forces ! 😡😡

They should have knocked it back for going ahead without planning permission. Some of these festival companies think they can do whatever they want .

Darkly funny: signs appearing across central London, protesting Starmer’s use of anti-terror laws against peaceful pro-Palestine protesters.
