Glastonbury says chants by Bob Vylan ‘crossed the line' as police assess footage

Glastonbury Festival has said chants by punk duo Bob Vylan have 'crossed the line', as footage from their set is assessed by the police. The performer Bobby Vylan led crowds on the festival's West Holts Stage in chants of 'Death, death to the IDF' on Saturday, before a member of Irish rap trio Kneecap suggested fans 'start a riot' at his bandmate's forthcoming court appearance. A joint Instagram post from Glastonbury and Emily Eavis said: 'As a festival, we stand against all forms of war and terrorism. 'We will always believe in – and actively campaign for – hope, unity, peace and love. 'With almost 4,000 performances at Glastonbury 2025, there will inevitably be artists and speakers appearing on our stages whose views we do not share, and a performer's presence here should never be seen as a tacit endorsement of their opinions and beliefs. 'However, we are appalled by the statements made from the West Holts stage by Bob Vylan yesterday. 'Their chants very much crossed a line and we are urgently reminding everyone involved in the production of the Festival that there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence.' Health Secretary Wes Streeting said chants of 'death' to the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) at Glastonbury were 'appalling' and that the BBC and festival have 'questions to answer'. As police examine videos of their comments, Mr Streeting told Sky News' Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips: 'I thought it's appalling, to be honest, and I think the BBC and Glastonbury have got questions to answer about how we saw such a spectacle on our screens.' He said what people should be talking about in the context of Israel and Gaza is the humanitarian catastrophe and the fact that Israeli settlers attacked a Christian village this week. He added: 'The fact that we saw that chant at a music festival, when there were Israelis at a similar music festival who were kidnapped, murdered, raped, and in some cases still held captive, whether it's a Palestinian or an Israeli, whether it's a Christian, a Jew or a Muslim, all life is precious. 'All life is sacred. And I find it pretty revolting we've got to a state in this conflict where you're supposed to sort of cheer on one side or the other like it's a football team.' Asked if the BBC should have cut the live feed, he said the broadcaster has questions to answer, but that he did not know what the editorial and operational 'challenges' are of taking such action. Avon and Somerset Police said video evidence would be assessed by officers 'to determine whether any offences may have been committed that would require a criminal investigation'. On social media, the Israeli Embassy said it was 'deeply disturbed by the inflammatory and hateful rhetoric expressed on stage at the Glastonbury Festival'. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch called the scenes 'grotesque', writing on X: 'Glorifying violence against Jews isn't edgy. The West is playing with fire if we allow this sort of behaviour to go unchecked.' The Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) said it would be formally complaining to the BBC over its 'outrageous decision' to broadcast Bob Vylan. A spokesperson said: 'Our national broadcaster must apologise for its dissemination of this extremist vitriol, and those responsible must be removed from their positions.' A BBC spokesperson added: 'Some of the comments made during Bob Vylan's set were deeply offensive. 'During this live stream on iPlayer, which reflected what was happening on stage, a warning was issued on screen about the very strong and discriminatory language. We have no plans to make the performance available on demand.' Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy has spoken to the BBC director general about Bob Vylan's performance, a Government spokesperson said. Kneecap, who hail from Belfast, have been in the headlines after member Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs under the name Mo Chara, was charged with a terror offence. In reference to his bandmate's forthcoming court date, Naoise O Caireallain, who performs under the name Moglai Bap, said they would 'start a riot outside the courts', before clarifying: 'No riots just love and support, and support for Palestine'. In the run-up to the festival at Worthy Farm in Somerset, several politicians called for the group to be removed from the line-up and Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said their performance would not be 'appropriate'. During the performance, Caireallain said: 'The Prime Minister of your country, not mine, said he didn't want us to play, so f*** Keir Starmer.' He also said a 'big thank you to the Eavis family' and said 'they stood strong' amid calls for the organisers to drop them from the line-up.

I can't believe how far Switch emulation has come in the year since Nintendo killed it

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority It's been a few weeks since the Nintendo Switch 2 hit shelves, but if we're being perfectly honest, there's not much reason to buy one yet. I've been revisiting my OG Switch to stave off the FOMO, but I was sad to learn that my left Joy-Con now drifts so badly that Link runs in circles like he's drunk in Breath of the Wild. Instead of shelling out $40 for another Joy-Con with a ticking drift timer, I reached for something I hadn't touched in a while: Switch emulation on Android. I had largely given up on the scene after the events of last year, but what I found honestly blew me away. Not only is Switch emulation alive, it's evolved in ways I didn't see coming. I still love playing on real hardware, but let's just say the emulator grave Nintendo tried to dig didn't stay filled for long. Hard reset: The Yuzu shutdown Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority For those of you who haven't followed Switch emulation closely, it's been a crazy few years. Ryujinx and Yuzu were making huge gains, with the latter finally releasing an Android version in May 2023. At first, performance was limited, and while it was novel and fun, few games were truly playable. Things really kicked into high gear when native code execution (NCE) entered the chat. This clever compatibility layer lets Android devices execute some Switch code natively, resulting in major performance jumps. Suddenly, games that were once PowerPoint slideshows became playable. Skyline pioneered the use of compatibility layers for Switch emulation, but when it bowed out early in 2023 to dodge Nintendo's legal fireball, Yuzu picked up the torch. Native code execution is a gamechanger for Switch emulation on Android. With NCE enabled, Yuzu finally felt like it was close to being a real option for handheld play. Sure, you still needed a reasonably beefy Android device, but it was no longer just a novelty. I couldn't believe I could actually play Switch games on a phone, and that's when I started to think: maybe Switch emulation on Android actually had a future. Curtis Joe / Android Authority That hope didn't last long. In early 2024, Nintendo did what Nintendo does best: lawyer up. They filed a lawsuit against Yuzu's developers, Tropic Haze, effectively killing the project. The case never made it to court, but a quick settlement led to a quiet shutdown. Citra, the beloved 3DS emulator from the same team, vanished in the fallout. With Yuzu and Ryujinx shut down, it looked like game over for Switch emulation. Ryujinx wasn't far behind. Later that year, Nintendo reportedly contacted the lead developer behind that project, too, sending an offer they couldn't refuse. By October 2024, Ryujinx was gone. Just like that, the two biggest names in Switch emulation were dead. The scene was, by all appearances, toast. Fork yeah, we're back Nick Fernandez / Android Authority It didn't take long for Yuzu forks to start popping up, although most didn't add any new functionality or enhancements. This Wild West period saw forks like Suyu, Uzuy, Sudachi, and Torzu gain popularity, although those and others were frequently removed from GitHub by a blue shell from Nintendo HQ. But then came Citron, the first fork that offered new features, better compatibility, and actual performance gains. For the first time in months, it felt like the scene was moving forward again. Citron's core team eventually imploded, but for most games and most phones, it's still the one I keep installed. Eden is currently the most exciting and ambitious Yuzu fork. Out of Citron's ashes came Eden, a new fork built by many of the same devs, but now with a clearer vision, fresh code, and less drama. It's early days for Eden, but it already feels ambitious. The devs are throwing around big ideas for performance tweaks, UI improvements, and more features. The first public build of Eden dropped barely a month ago, and it's still half-baked in spots. But even so, it's the most exciting Switch emulation project I've seen since Yuzu's heyday. No matter which Yuzu variant you choose, performance still depends heavily on the turnip drivers. These unofficial, community-built GPU drivers are a labor of love, and they've also steadily improved over the years. Pick the right one, and you can squeeze out framerates the Switch itself might envy. Meanwhile, a new challenger appeared in a different corner of the emulator universe: Kenji-NX. Built on Ryujinx's codebase, it trades performance for accuracy. On older phones, that tradeoff doesn't pan out, but if you've got a Snapdragon 8 Elite, it's another story. The right emulator and driver can outperform even original Switch hardware. Ironically, the chipsets that struggle with Yuzu forks due to missing third-party drivers are the same ones where Kenji-NX shines. The more brute power your phone has, the better Kenji runs, and the more it starts to feel like the emulator of the future. In a twist Nintendo definitely didn't intend, the Switch 2 also helped boost emulator performance. Right before launch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe got a massive update that converted its Wii U-era 32-bit code to 64-bit. That tiny change doubled the average framerate on Android emulators, thanks to better compatibility with the NCE layer. Cease and persist Nick Fernandez / Android Authority Switch emulation may be charging ahead on the tech front, but legality is another matter. Nintendo has (grudgingly) admitted that emulation itself is legal, but if you're playing Switch games anywhere other than on an official cartridge, on a real Switch, on your couch, under an officially Mario-branded blanket, it's probably not happy about it. In fact, Nintendo has started bricking Switch 2 consoles that so much as touch a MiG Switch flash cart, even if you're using it for legitimate backups. The message is loud and clear: don't mess with the hardware, even if you purchased the software. Fortunately, developers have taken the Yuzu takedown to heart. Modern emulators steer clear of copyrighted files entirely. That means if you want to use one, you'll need to bring your own firmware, keys, and games, ideally dumped from your own modded Switch. Modding a Switch is against Nintendo's ToS, but that's not the emulator developers' problem, it's yours. Despite Nintendo's best efforts, Switch emulation isn't going anywhere. But even that doesn't make these emulators entirely safe. Nintendo's intellectual property page claims emulators 'encourage the use of unauthorized (i.e. pirate) copies' and that some 'circumvent security measures,' making them illegal by design. It's a legal minefield. Still, whether Nintendo admits it or not, emulation isn't going anywhere. After trying (and failing) to wipe it off the map, all it's really done is push the scene to decentralize and evolve. In a post-Yuzu world, Switch emulator development is more fragmented, but it's also more resilient and legally savvy. I still prefer playing Switch games on real hardware when I can. But that's not always possible anymore, with aging consoles, failing Joy-Cons, and a new Switch built without physical media in mind. Somehow, the best way to revisit this generation of Nintendo games might not be a Switch 2 or even a Switch 1. It might be an Android phone and an emulator born from the ashes.

When the Beach Boys turned into men

Around ten years younger than the Beach Boys, I grew up listening to their music. As if I had a choice! It was everywhere in the air. Every house, every car, every weekend cook-out. The overhead speakers at the mall. Movie soundtracks at the drive-in theater. The low-octane, high-octave harmonies rained down all over. Like a sun shower – I wish I could say. Instead, it was more like pollen. The repeats on the radio actually gave me a headache. Sports cars and 'woodies.' Surf boards. French bikinis. Pretty surfer girls with 'bushy blonde hairdos.' Tanned handsome boys kissing 'Hawaiian dolls' on beach blankets. California culture of youth, beauty, privilege, sexual ease. But I was born in the Midwest. I was raised up North where the sunlight seldom, if ever, 'played upon my hair.' My father and mother both worked at Goldblatt's department store, and the year I got my Social Security card, I landed my first job as a janitor at Montgomery Wards. No T-birds. No little deuce coupes or giddy up 409 muscle cars. No 'surfin' safaris' to Waimea Bay. No one I knew at the city college I attended went to Aruba, Jamaica, or Kokomo for spring break. After school, we reported to work, took the city bus home, then shoveled the snow. And I had yet to find one of those northern girls the Beach Boys sang about, who 'keep their boyfriends warm at night.' Then one winter day when we had freezing rain, I heard a song that touched my heart. With minor chords creating a soundtrack of longing, loss, and sadness, 'Oh Caroline, No' bewailed the end of a love affair, the speaker drenched in sadness 'to watch a sweet thing die.' Finally, an artist who felt our pain! My former classmate and good friend who now lives in New York said he first heard 'Caroline' while sitting in an Army service club in Fort Polk, Louisiana, prior to shipping out to Vietnam, and shortly after receiving a Dear John letter. 'My young life was in ruins,' he told me. But listening to the song over and over, knowing another had the same soul crushing experience, helped him come to terms with it. Meanwhile, I was surprised to learn that the artist who wrote the song was Brian Wilson, lyricist, bassist, and front man for the Beach Boys and for their previous decade of confection, who had transitioned from sugary fantasy to heart-rending reality with the release of their album Pet Sounds. Reflecting on his own feelings of inadequacy and depression in tracks like, 'I Just Wasn't Made for These Times,' and 'You Still Believe in Me,' Wilson strummed the faces of millions of like-minded listeners dealing with loneliness, loss, or lack of direction. The album was transformational, a kind of validating perception of people's quiet desperation. He sees us, I felt at the time. And the shared experience was intensified by the music's cathartic instrumental accompaniment of harpsichord, piccolo, and clarinet. Among the album's most popular tracks, the addictively rhythmic 'Wouldn't It Be Nice,' was an ironic acknowledgment not just of one person's unrequited love, but of all of our dreams deferred. While my favorite number, 'Sloop John B,' was a metaphor for life's paradox: a jaunty, joyful sea shanty that comes to a sobering end with the verse: 'I feel so broke up, I wanna go home.' The album's mega hit single, 'God Only Knows,' with its lilting melody and achingly plaintive refrain, is tinged with the fear of a monumental love disappearing. It's the album's one song that Paul McCartney says brought him to tears. Brian Wilson, whose mid-life struggle with drugs and mental illness has been well chronicled, died last week on June 11th at age 82. I and millions of others will never forget how he applied his genius to enhance an entire generation's quality of life with unique and sensually delightful music and a more honest understanding of who we are.
