Police say they are investigating chants of “death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]” led by Bobby Vylan, of the punk duo Bob Vylan, at an Al Quds Day protest in central London.
Videos on social media appeared to show Vylan, whose real name is Pascal Robinson-Foster, making a speech at the demonstration before chanting “death, death to the IDF” as the crowd joined in.
Last year, police decided not to bring criminal charges after the group’s Glastonbury 2025 performance when Vylan led crowds in chants of “death, death to the IDF”.
In a post on X, the Met said: "We are aware of chanting made by a speaker at the Al Quds protest and will be investigating. "We recognise the concern footage and chanting like this causes, particularly with London’s Jewish communities.

You are an Islamophobic person who play on sectarianism
You genuinely believe that the Iranian regime supports the Palestinian cause because it’s a country that cares deeply about human rights?
You seriously believe that you support Palestinians when you reject Palestinians rights to self defense and police anti settler colonialism people speech. Israel is even worse than iran in term of abuse backed by your shitty country
Quds means Jerusalem. Iran got popular around the world by helping Palestinians resist genocide.
They don’t give a shit about Palestinians. They only support Hamas.
How can you claim to support Palestinians while backing an organization that tortures critics according to Amnesty International?

You are rejecting Palestinians right to resistance. You reminds me of the europeens settler who was talking about first nations eating other first nations people during war to justify their settler colonialism

I want free elections so the Palestinian people can democratically decide their leadership.
You want to impose leadership on them. That’s the difference between us.
Hamas was elected in 2005. Then they banned all elections.
From 2005 to 2024, Gaza was devastated by 4 bloody wars.
Did you experience those wars? Or are you sitting on your ass praising palestinians getting bombed because of an organization that denies them the right to free elections?
By the terrorist state that you never posted a single post condemning them here
I want free elections for Palestinians. You only want free elections for Brits.
Both Hamas and Mahmoud Abbas are not legitimate anymore. They both banned elections. They both use thugs to beat up critics. How is that different than Israeli settlers? There needs to be new elections. Until then, as long as they use violence to repress critics, they are not legitimate.
You don’t care at all about Palestinians as it showed by your frustration towards anti settler colonialism instead of getting frustrated about the settler colonial power . You are crying about Israeli flags getting burned when israel is trying to exterminate palestinians
Do you agree that Israel is a country run by total murderous pieces of shit and that Iran is a murderous country run by total pieces of shit ?
Yes or no ?
thats true… he should support the IOF who murder 30,000 kids and commit genocide, illegal settlements and ethnic cleansing and kidnap 20000+ hostages and rape and torture hostages to death… only anti-semitics dont support those things
