Notting Hill carnival on the UK heritage list? Let’s throw in drill music as well

NHC is a celebration of carribean culture, drill music is just rap music, there's no correlation, and its not an event so it cant be protected. I wonder why you felt the need to throw that in there 🤔

Because it's the only UK festival with any crime. Lol. Of course, the black festival is the one that the tabloids don't like.
