Jimmy Carr: cool irony or cruel bigotry?

I am rather fond of Jimmy Carr. Having seen him in concert, I found him self-effacing and a master of his art, despite occasionally dipping his toes over the line, which is a humour many of us pre-millennials enjoy.

In case you aren’t aware of the ‘joke’, Carr mentioned the Jewish slaughter before following it up with the fact that many gypsies were also murdered, and framed that as a positive.

‘Culture’ Secretary Nadine Dorris has jumped aboard the bandwagon, maybe to deflect attention from the numerous raves at number 10, by stating that Netflix will be ‘forced’ to withdraw offensive content once new legislation is enforced. There, in one sentence, is the truth: this is all about control and the fear of the minority, yet extremely powerful, wokeists amongst us.
