Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi has compared comedian Chris Rock’s joke about actor Will Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, to school bullying.
Asked about the incident where actor Smith slapped Rock at the Oscars, after the comedian had made a joke about his wife’s alopecia, Mr Zahawi said: “Violence is never the answer to anything. As the Secretary of State for Education, I can tell you that the thing to do, is to communicate you’re upset.”
