Danny Baker: Standing ovation at first show since Twitter storm

The former BBC 5 Live presenter was accused of mocking the Duchess of Sussex's racial heritage

He had invited anyone who wanted to heckle to do so at the start of the show, but none could be heard. Simon Robinson, from Colston Bassett in Nottinghamshire, said:"I think it [the tweet] was absolutely stupid and I have to say he went down in my estimation.

So glad this clown 🤡 got canned! So many mean hateful people in the world!

Goes to show the type of audience he has 🙄

Trump gets standing ovations too.

👍👍👍👍👍

Good ! 👍 p c c**p in this stupid country!

Why?

Harmless sence of humour get over it

Anybody who falls foul of the bigoted PC BBC brigade must have something going for them.

So, maybe your bosses in the BBC were wrong in firing him.

It's the 21st century. Why is the bbc still forced upon us.

LoriConor There's a big surprise it's gone 1pm and ME ME MEMeghan isn't in the news that will really hack her off ....

He is a prick simple as

Disgusting

Great news. Those that know his work and followed him for years recognise how ridiculous this has been. This should have included his employer bbc5live but instead they chose to give credence and fuel to the absurd accusation and left him too it. Absolute cowards.

He doesn't realise what an idiot he is. Sad really!!

'However, he again denied being racist.' — BBC How bloody dare he. We KNOW what was in your head Danny, we know.

The standard of hatred is appalling, which says more about the people tweeting it. You need help , a lot more than Danny Baker,who admits he was wrong......

It was something he found totally hilarious, I'm more interested where he got it from, did he just come across it or did he go looking for it?

Why? Bloke is a knob.

And what does that tell you.

Whereas Andrew Marr ....

Despised the Tweet. Thought the sacking was fair. Happy to see him move on and glad prodnose has his fan base. Questioning why him having a stand up show is a newsworthy story? Farage and Yaxley-Lennon can get standing ovations in the UK...

Get off and have a pint with Gazza, alki!

alright Danny, if we accept you aren't racist could you please explain the idea behind bullying or being nasty to (or about) any four-day old child?

You, the MSM, are a bunch of jokers made sick and sinister by a bs PC ideology of divisive identity politics. You are the guilty ones in all this as we witness the hatred pouring out of the airwaves 'burn the witch' 'white man bad' 'white race evil'. Baker is not guilty, you are.

Excellent

He knew exactly what he was doing. Many people didn’t know of Danny Baker until he did this. Also someone like him who is immersed in his subject matter knows only too well about the provocation and intention behind his actions. Truly the devil’s hand at play here.

What?! When are you guys gonna start with the stocks and rotten fruit.

soldier on danny love and hate all part of celebrity

Yeah but Hitler used to get standing ovations and so does trump. Everyone's got some supporters whoever they are. Baker may not be resist but he posted a cheap shot trying to be clever and got what he deserved

Look at the size of his hands, clearly a racist

Goes to show that racism is alive and kicking in the UK

Ridiculous decision to get rid of him.

I never had any issue with him saying he wasn't racist. That doesn't stop him from being incredibly stupid and offensive.

Interesting how many people support his views

How did he do it? The world fortunately isn't perfect and nor are the people in it, there is always an appetite to make allowance and forgive. At points in all our lives we will be grateful for this. But it doesn't mean it's been forgotten or will go away.

You left out the show was at the local white supremacy meeting.

Oh my god, how dare he! Why hasn't he been burned at the stake yet!

Of course they would. They are who we thought they were.

So, his sacking did benefit him, or so he says?
