Nigel Farages House Party featuring Mr Blobby, aka Mark Francois will be standing on the white cliffs of Dover with an RPG inviting lucky contestants to Sink a Migrant.

Geoff Norcott to replace Frankie Boyle on New World Order to give his comedic turn on how BLM Marxists are destroying the political system.

Is this the ‘Cancel Culture’ we hear so much about?

Im fucking outraged.....no really, I am.

BBC hampered in attempts to introduce more right-wing comedy as cabinet ministers continue to refuse to be interviewed

Once again, the absence of creative people on the right in the arts is not down to a conspiracy, but because they just don't exist in big numbers.

Wheel on as many right wing comedians as you can, nobody will laugh unless they're actually funny. And studio audiences tend to be young, metropolitan and left leaning.

I believe the BBC are just getting rid of the ultra woke stuff, comedy is comedy and all things being equal it has to be funny. Stuff ranging from One Foot In The Grave, Vicar Of Dibley, The Inbetweeners and the classic Only Fools And Horses should be the yardstick the BBC content should be judged by.

Most good comedy should be close to the bone, it should be even handed and written to bring some joy into our sometimes miserable lives.

If someone is funny, they are funny.

Don't think i have ever sat and watched a comedian and refused to laugh because of their politics in fact i don't think i have ever decided to find out a comedians politics.

A few posters need a break from this forum. Go sit in the transfer forum for a week and enjoy you miserable twats ;-)

If they were being cancelled for their privately held opinions which bear no relation to their job then I'd be worried.

As it is, many are set to be cancelled in the interests of balance and impartiality on the BBC, and some will hopefully be cancelled because they are just plain shit.

Hopefully, the funny left-wing comedy survives but whoever commissioned Nish Kumar wants a head check. He's trending on Twitter as someone who's unfairly targeted because of his race. If anyone thinks that, do yourself a favour and go and watch 5 minutes of the Mash Report. If that doesn't change your mind, nothing will.

Is this a parody? I mean, fair play if it is, because it’s hilarious.
