Bob Vylan claimed "political pressure" was behind the postponements

In a post shared on Instagram the group said: "Due to political pressure from the likes of Bridget Phillipson and groups in the north-west of England, we have had to reschedule our Leeds and Manchester shows.

"All tickets remain valid and all other shows are continuing as planned. Bristol sold out, last few tickets left for London. See you soon. Love ya."

Ahead of the gig at Manchester Academy, which is on the University of Manchester campus, Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson said universities had the powers to "take action to prevent harassment and intimidation".
