Musician Bobby Vylan, one half of the punk rap duo Bob Vylan, claims he was praised by staff from the British Broadcasting Corporation after his controversial Glastonbury performance, despite a nationwide backlash. The set, which included chants and language widely condemned as offensive, led to the broadcaster admitting it had broken editorial guidelines and issuing a public apology. Vylan stated that staff at the event called his set 'fantastic' and showed no immediate concern after the performance. Despite criticism and professional consequences, Vylan expressed no regret and said he would repeat the chant, arguing that the reaction was disproportionate compared to the suffering of Palestinians. The British Broadcasting Corporation has reiterated its apology and acknowledged errors in its handling of the broadcast.
