John one look at the roster there just might have given you a clue...just might....

He was part of the most subversive comedy group in the world.

I'm hoping this is his final act of anarchy and he's doing this to take the piss out of it. He's clever enough to do it without them realising.

He's a comedy hero of mine but I don't want to give Gammun News Network the viewers.
 

Cleese reposted an image of Boris Johnson to X, formerly Twitter, and wrote that he could not believe GB News had hired a “serial liar”.

I used to think Cleese was an erudite guy. I think I’ve grown to realise he just seems to enjoy being contrarian, so sometimes his views will happen to coincide with yours. That’s not been the case for about a decade now for me.

Reminds me of one of the most formative conversations of my teen years. When I had just started at university a friend took me aside and said “Just FYI, I get that you want to question people’s opinions, but if you try to play devils advocate on absolutely everything people are just going to think you’re a ****.”

He was absolutely right.

Philosophy student?
 
the great beauty of GB News is that they think they speak for a majority in the country despite tiny viewing figures so they invite people on who they think are not as clever as their presenter who then gets dismantled comprehensively and their only route out is to silence their critic - something which they claim they are against - its gloriously funny

It’s a common theme throughout the people that have these views. They all think they are the voice of the silent majority and bastions of common sense.

It must be a key module in the University of Life’s main degree.
 
post script to the events on the free thinking free speaking Coast Guys show



Coast Guy realising that if he really did believe his own bullshit he should resign but having burned his bridges with the business he can see no-one pays to see him stood in a bus shelter howling at the moon

 
Greedy ****, he just can’t help himself. Wish he’d just fall off the planet, who wants to see this twat nowadays?
Nobody. He's been hired to cause outrage and ensure tweets etc by the outraged. I imagine a large slice of this channels viewing figures is composed of said outraged types looking to be outraged and offended.
