Calls for it to be cancelled at the Vic Hall on December 17 , hope not as I’ve seen him a few times and he’s brilliant but the lefties , wokies, snowflakes and tree huggers are calling for it to be cancelled

I dont particularly find him funny to be honest, so I dont go and watch him. Surely that's just a sensible approach for most

He’s absolutely woeful. But I respect someone’s right to spunk £25 up the wall watching him, and his right to trot out the same tired old cliched bollocks in the name of comedy
I haven’t seen “calls for it to be cancelled” either, that usually means 3 people on Twitter……

Best bit of publicity he's had in years
I'd assumed he died ages ago

Not my bag. However it's quite straightforward, don't go if you don't like it.
Same as the folk who complain about TV programmes, just change bleeding channel.
What is up with people .

A fictional person created by our local 'newpaper' in order to spin this load of guff to get a bunch of puce-faced bigots blustering about woke lefties and snowflakes and, on the other side, a load of yoghurt-knitting, oh so virtuous social justice cunts branding anyone who doesn't bend to their viewpoint as thick, racist, a sex-offender in waiting etc. All for clicks and comments. We're letting scum media like this divide society just to line their own pockets. |

This story shows precisely why it might be a good idea to do some basic research before launching into a tirade, trying to create a victim mentality based on unverified assumptions creating further divisions in a society that is already badly fragmented.
There will always be people who think he should be locked up as well as others who think he’s some kind of hero, but there are very many somewhere in between too who don’t tend to draw the same level of publicity.

I’m sticking with Jim Davidson, Alf Garnett , and Bernard Manning , Chubby can do one 😉 |

But I respect someone’s right to spunk £25 up the wall watching him, and his right to trot out the same tired old cliched bollocks in the name of comedy I haven’t seen “calls for it to be cancelled” either, that usually means 3 people on Twitter……Whilst I think this is surely very close to the truth, you can't deny that these modern day twitter rabbles seem to have a disproportionate level of influence for an ultra-minority group of broadly similar-minded individuals? Cancel culture isn't an imagined phenomenon. These types probably represent significantly less than 5% of the population, yet somehow wield enough power for us all to be aware of their presence. They're the modern day christian-right book burners - except the christian-right's influence was never so disproportionate. They are still an extremely important demographic in US elections at least. This less than 5% though are the epitome of the tail wagging the dog. A lot of that is down to the media and the corporations of course. If it was ordinary people who decided what was important or not, then this less than 5% would be writing their messages in shit on bus station walls. |

It's ironic really, I keep seeing people who claim to be cancelled sat on news channels, talk shows and daytime TV repeatedly telling me how they've been cancelled....... |

I’ve heard just as offensive stuff from Ricky gervais but with less swearing but still funny. If it’s funny it’s funny in my opinion.

The people offended by something they're not even going to see are probably the same sort of people who call others 'gammon'
