      When the first Gulf War happened, the BBC banned 67 songs from the airwaves for fear of causing indecency or offence. Please read this list and tell me that the United Kingdom has a swaggersome history of protecting your right to offendpic.twitter.com/7iOS1ZhzWe

      And how about Drill? The group 1011 are banned by court order from mentioning postcodes in their music as of June 2018. Skengdo and AM were prosecuted for performing in 2019pic.twitter.com/d50KnblTm2

      One more thing: if you think the UK government stands stoutly athwart people’s desire not to be offended, you really should examine our pornography laws. Remember when the Audiovisual Media Services Regulations 2014 banned female ejaculation? And BDSM?pic.twitter.com/JpMjdwGIQd
