“I was refusing and refusing for a year and then it became apparent that frankly I could do with the money.”

But Sinead admitted she had to give up the lucrative payday after getting threats after showing solidarity with the Palestinians in the current conflict.

“I’ve been accused of somehow being a supporter of the Israeli authorities, which is nonsense — nothing could be further from the truth,” she told Hot Press.

“It was a gig that had been organised by a bunch of Palestinian and Israeli women to campaign for this idea of sharing the place basically, and right-wing Jewish groups threatened to kill myself and my band.

“I’m not prepared to die for anyone else’s bulls***, nor am I prepared to put my band at risk, so we didn’t go.”
