Azealia Banks could be prosecuted if she continues to make insulting remarks about Irish people, a barrister has suggested.

Barrister Tomas McGarvey tweeted that the singer could be prosecuted under the 2003 Communications Act for her remarks.

“Hi #azeliabanks in light of your recent comments on #instagram about Irish women & Irish people generally, perhaps I can introduce you to the #CommunicationsAct2003 (s127) before you land in England. If you keep up the insults, you may end up with first-hand experience,” he said.

He included a screenshot of section 127 of the Communications Act 2003. Under the act, a person is guilty of an offence if he or she sends by means of a public electronic communications network a message or other matter that is grossly offensive or of an indecent, obscene or menacing nature.
