He could always just not go to watch them?

Well never having heard of this story nor Kneecap I looked them up… and I agree with John Swinney…

First time for everything…

[Mason89]

It?s just the same old Mary Whitehouse b0llocks.

Pretty poor stuff from Swinney.
I bet he had never heard of them until last week.

Clearly an agenda against them at the moment. The worse the press, the more popular they become.

I remember back in the 80s when they went against the Beastie Boys, just made them bigger.

The Kneecap film was one of the best things I have watched in ages.

Advocating killing MP’s? Edgy.

Possibly but if you want to ban any group or artist for edgy comments, you would be living in a cultural desert. Or Clydebank as I like to call it

The film is well worth a watch

[Mason89]

Or we could ban the film too. There?s adult themes all the way through

Beneath you.

Calling for folk to kill MPs is a bitty more than adult.

It?s the whattaboutery which is most annoying. Tory MPs have killed people for a living since 2010. SNP MPs allow sectarian hate marches through the same city, where thousands of people sing about killing catholics

Nobody watching Kneecap at TRNSMT will be inspired to kill their MP. Especially if they come from West Dunbartonshire, as nobody has seen the cnt since election night

Edgy. Well that's a first.

By your own admission above, you had never heard of Kneecap until you looked into them yesterday. The same as John Swinney.

If you had known anything about them, it wouldn't have been a surprise.

The initial quotes about killing MPs were from November 23 and brought to light the past few days because of what happened in America.

I don't really do fake outrage.

A surprising twist from Canada, where the electorate chose not to elect the populist w@nker

Itll never catch on

[Mason89]

And the w@nker lost his seat. Went from being an absolute dead cert to be Canadian PM, to being as unemployed as Neil Critchley thanks to Trump.

So much winning bigly

Just read about that.

I know nothing of Canadian politics, but the boy that didn't win was supposedly polling 20% higher in the polls not too long ago.
I think the Canadians have something to thank Trump for.

The real reason the liberals won is that they dumped blackface enthusiast Justin Trudeau who was wildly unpopular. Anyway they didn't really win because it is a hung parliament.
