Leeds Festival Main Stage act dedicates X-rated song to Prime Minster Boris Johnson

A Main Stage act at Leeds Festival 2019 has dedicated an X-rated rant to Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Frank Carter and The Rattlesnakes earned massive cheers when he dedicated I Hate You to the PM.

In the song, Carter screams ‘I f**king hate you, yeah I hate you’ as part of a number of expletives.

On the screen behind the band, there were a number of quotes from the Prime Minister.

One included: "It is absolutely ridiculous that people should choose to go around looking like letter boxes."

The Main Stage performance was certainly one of the more politically-charged moments from Leeds Festival 2019.
