I’m currently playing the smallest violin in the world for yet another comedian who has complained about a non-existent cancel culture. Frankie Boyle – who thinks jokes about disabled children are funny – claimed he’s now “afraid” to post controversial gags online in case they cause backlash.
Far from being cancelled following his digs at then eight-year-old Harvey Price a few years ago, he was given his own show on the BBC. If that’s being cancelled, sign me up.
Frankie revealed he regularly stops himself from posting controversial jokes on social media, stating: “I now think of things and just don’t put them down.”
