Police Scotland say they have a “proportionate and considered policing plan” ahead of Kneecap’s gig in Glasgow, which replaces their cancelled slot at the TRNSMT festival.

Kneecap were axed from the line-up of TRNSMT in the city amid a row over an investigation by counter-terror police into rapper Mo Chara, who is accused of terrorism offences related to a Hezbollah flag he allegedly held up on stage.
