Short story:

British rapper Giggs speaks out against the Metropolitan Police's use of the controversial Form 696 which requires venues in London, England, UK, Europe, to supply the names, stage names, addresses and phone numbers of all promoters and artists participating in an event - particularly if a night "predominantly features DJs or MCs performing to a backing track". Form 696 is widely thought to have racist implications, and Giggs declares, "They need to work with us. If they think there's a threat then help us - put some police out there and work with us rather than just shutting us down."
