Fifty members of the House of Lords have asked Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood to cancel US rapper Macklemore's travel permit before his Free Palestine Tour show at Wembley's OVO Arena on 30 October. Their letter, led by Lord Walney, objects to some concert proceeds going to the Palestinian Youth Movement, which denies their accusations. The Home Office has not announced any decision on the request yet.
