The rapper in punk duo Bob Vylan will not face further action over his “death death to the IDF” chants at Glastonbury Festival, police have said.

Rapper Bobby Vylan, real name is Pascal Robinson-Foster led crowds on the festival’s West Holts Stage in the chants about the Israel Defence Forces during the group’s performance in June.

Avon and Somerset Police said a criminal investigation was under way shortly afterwards, with a senior detective appointed to lead the investigation.

    Nobody should be immune to criticism. But you should criticise people for their actions, not their being. I hate the Israeli state, not because they’re Jewish, but because of their actions in gaza.

    Unfortunately, you’re probably going to ban me just because of my previous passage, proving my point.

    Oh stop predicting a not yet existing victim state.
