The UK government has lost its appeal over a judge’s decision to throw out a terror charge against a member of the Irish language rap trio Kneecap. Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, known as Mo Chara, had been accused of showing support for proscribed organisation Hezbollah following a gig in London in 2024.

This entire process was never about me, never about any threat to the public and never about terrorism… it was always about Palestine,” Ó hAnnaidh said. “Your attempts to label me a terrorist have failed because I was right and, yet again, Britain was wrong.”
