Noel Gallagher Criticizes Glastonbury for Political Messaging

The former Oasis star claims the festival has become too focused on political statements rather than music.

  • Gallagher described Glastonbury as 'a bit woke' and criticized artists for making political statements on stage.
  • He suggested musicians should focus on their performances and avoid 'virtue-signaling.'
  • Glastonbury has a long history of supporting left-wing political causes, including Greenpeace and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.
  • Recent performances included political messages about the Israel-Palestine conflict and criticism of global leaders.
  • Gallagher's comments reflect a broader debate on the role of politics in art and music festivals.
