Sir Lindsay Hoyle, who is a former president of the Rugby Football League, said: "Rugby league has a long and proud history and is littered with examples of players who have excelled in the sport and inspired future generations to play the game."He says there is something wrong when the sport "cannot boast one single player, over its 130-year history, who has received a knighthood"."I want to see rugby league given the recognition it deserves and hope this will be addressed in the near future," said the Speaker.

A spokesperson for the festival said: "If their recent shows in London are anything to go by, this promises to be one of the most memorable headline sets we've ever had at 2000trees."You may have even seen Kneecap at 2000trees before, this will be their third visit after all. But headlining the main stage this summer is going to be something else entirely.

"We will all be there in the pit with you for one of the most exciting, fun and historic sets you'll see this summer."The BBC contacted 2000trees to ask if it has any security concerns in relation to Kneecap's performance, or is putting additional measures in place, and is awaiting a response.
