I’m old enough to remember Eric Djemba-Djemba, Boutros Boutros-Ghali and Neville Neville, so unimaginative names just don’t do it for me.

The two Bob Vylans, a weird wrapper for a pair of two-bob rappers, lived up to the hyperdross. They are cack, but everybody gets their fifteen minutes of fame, and they duly unloaded onto the IDF.

Big deal.

Had they launched a few ballistic missiles in the direction of Tel Aviv, that might have warranted an investigation. If they’d chanted ‘Death to Russia’, would the police have focused their attention on a hate crime or the fact that the UK has actually been sending weapons for Ukrainians to attack the Great Bear?

They wouldn’t know where to begin, mainly because they’d already be tied in knots of their own making.

Most notably, some sectors of the public seemed more outraged about an anti-army chant than the carnage being perpetrated by that very same army in Gaza. Slagging off the IDF is not antisemitic. It’s not even anti-Israel. Having a rant about Zionists isn’t antisemitic but is anti- Israel.

Again, big deal. It’s an opinion – take it or leave it.

It was nothing more than a political statement that might have been coarse but also par for the course.

Conflating ‘Israel’ and ‘Jews’ in order to criminalise dissent is of course a routine standby for those buttressing an unfettered Israeli state. Look what happened to Corby. He’s still on the Labour sidelines, which is probably not such a shabby place to be right now. Those jokers are shaping up to be the worst government in living memory, which is no mean feat.

I guess we all need to be honest about the full picture, which at least the fingered Bobs were. They would like to see the IDF dead in the same way that people who whine Slava Ukraini imply a similar wish for the Russian Army.

On the same bill, Kneecap began their set at Glastonbury, leading the crowds in chants of ‘Fuck Keir Starmer!’, the sentiments of which were enthusiastically reciprocated. The son of a toolmaker has notoriously thin skin and clearly no appreciation of irony, as he relentlessly flags that his father made tools. No surprise that he’s on a strop.

Avon & Somerset Police are investigating, which is I suppose an encouraging move of sorts. It would be great if they now progressed from that onto burglaries, car crime, and violent assault. Our police services really do need to get past their hurty words fixation, though.

Cops nowadays seem to be keen on serious crime only when they are perpetrating it themselves. They’re so busy stalking and raping, I’m surprised they’ve got any spare moments for policing.

The fact that a senior detective is even looking into this all tells you everything about the moral compass of this country.

It’s buggered. We’re a two-bob nation.
