SkyNewsHD
and BBCnewsHD are now both covering this.

The BBC had a guest on, if you try to complain to
Ofcom you get link to Nickys nation Netherlands (Netflix Euro base)
so that is no good.

You only get cancelled if you misspeak and apologise for it, jokes are fine.

Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries said the comments were "abhorrent and they just shouldn't be on television".

Ms Dorries suggested the government could legislate to stop comedy people find offensive being shown on streaming platforms. "We're already looking at future legislation to bring into scope those sort of comments," she told the BBC.

Asked about a previous Tweet where she said "left-wing snowflakes are killing comedy", Ms Dorries replied: "Well, that's not comedy."

Imagine if he said the same about muslims

Gypsies are the only minority left that it’s acceptable to be racist towards

The only way you get equality is to treat everyone as equals

it was a joke, whether you find it funny is a different matter. It's a pretty sad day when the government thinks it can dictate what people should find funny

I don't have a problem with people joking about the Holocaust. When people are required to have what they laugh at, monitored, well... that's a slippery slope. Everyone knows what Jimmy Carr's humour is like, last night on the news they interviewed various people in the street, NONE of whom had actually seem the show. No one walked out of the show because presumably everyone who'd bought a ticket knew what to expect.

What I DO have a problem with, is the pure, unvarnished ignorance of someone who says that the Holocaust what a dispute between white groups... and actually believe that. Whoopi wasn't joking, she believed that sh*t.
