Belfast rap trio Kneecap addressed Donald Trump’s state visit to the UK during a rousing gig at Wembley Arena where they told fans music artists are “filling a void” left by politicians.

Before taking to the stage at their London show, a message was displayed on the wall that read: “[British prime minister Keir] Starmer welcomed Isaac Herzog to this city like a king last week. Today Trump is here, the man who permits the slaughter.”
