UK Jewish groups threaten protests if Kanye West’s Wireless shows go ahead

Campaign Against Antisemitism calls on rapper to cancel gigs, while rapper offers to meet Jewish representatives

Kanye West will face mass protests if his three-night residency at London's Wireless festival goes ahead, according to Jewish groups who say that if the rapper is truly sorry for his antisemitic remarks he should cancel this summer's gigs.

In a statement on Tuesday, West, who is legally known as Ye, offered to meet and listen" to members of the UK's Jewish community after a backlash over his planned appearance at the festival in July.
