Pressure from MPs and Jewish groups is mounting to cancel Kanye West's appearance at Wireless Festival and prevent him from entering the UK over his previous antisemitic comments.

The star, now known as Ye, released a song called Heil Hitler and sold swastika T-shirts last year before apologising and blaming his bipolar disorder.

He is due to play at the London event in July - but two sponsors withdrew on Sunday, while Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer called the booking "deeply concerning".

The Conservative Party has urged the government to refuse him a visa because "allowing someone with his track record to headline a major public event sends entirely the wrong message".

Shadow home secretary Chris Philp said West's past antisemitic actions were "not a one-off lapse, but a pattern of behaviour that has caused real offence and distress to Jewish communities".
