UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said it is “deeply concerning” that Kanye West is set to headline Wireless Festival in London. Starmer cited West’s past antisemitic remarks and said such views must be confronted. “Everyone has a responsibility to ensure Britain is a place where Jewish people feel safe,” he said. Sponsor Pepsi has withdrawn support from the event. Political leaders have also called for stricter action. Officials said no visa application has been received yet. West earlier apologised for his remarks in a public statement. (PC: BBC)
