EDM 1150: Incitement of violence against political representatives

That this House defends the role of art as a powerful force for protest, solidarity, and accountability, especially in standing with oppressed peoples; recognises art’s vital role in holding governments and institutions to account; affirms that political art can be provocative, critical, and disruptive; but utterly condemns any language that incites or promotes violence against elected representatives, or expresses support for proscribed terrorist organisations, as seen in recent statements by Kneecap promoting slogans such as the only good Tory is a dead Tory, kill your local MP and up Hamas and Hezbollah; and reaffirms that political disagreement must never cross into glorification of terrorism or incitement to violence.
