Scotcast - Kneecap, migrant deal and booze at football
Download Kneecap, migrant deal and booze at football
Kneecap have performed a sell-out show in Glasgow after being axed from the line-up at the city's TRNSMT festival.
In the second of our weekly July episodes, Natalie is joined by the BBC's Phil Sim and Paul McNamee, the editor of The Big Issue, to discuss whether the Irish rappers have outsmarted politicians who urged promotors to drop them.
Phil and Paul also give their take on the 'one in, one out' migrant deal announced between the UK and France - and an unusual appeal by Partick Thistle Football Club.
Scotcast is the BBC’s Scottish news podcast, with Martin Geissler, Laura Miller and Natalie Higgins.
