      @@Toodyslexicforyou You might want to consider that he meant if it wasn’t for the UK leaving the European Union and therefore no longer being part of Europe, that Ricky Gervais can only be the funniest man in the UK but not Europe anymore. At least that was how I read it and it was quite funny. Of course I may be wrong too.

      A BBC diversity hire you say? Paid for by a tax on watching television that is collected by force and threat of force by the same state power system that the BBC is part of? Such a good thing that there are infinite jobs available and the labour market isn't subject to scarcity like all other markets, or else diversity hires would displace the autochthonous...

      What government allows its people to go hungry and homeless, while all the time feeds and houses migrants in their millions. This is not and i repeat not, what the people of our nation has voted for, SUNAK and STAMMER must go they have ashamed our great nation and crushed it to its very core.
      This corruption will be spoken about and recorded in our history forever shame on them. As a veteran of 24yrs with 10 medals of service this is not what i fought for, at this moment in time i am ashamed to be British. More and more i see those that have been down trodden, giving charity to those in need, yet our power and money hungry leaders continue to take from us, may God have mercy on them, they are going to need it, because the people will never forget what they have done and it will certainly take a generation to forgive them for their greed and corruption. My whole life i have been conservative and always stood by my convictions, but i can no longer watch others suffer in silence while they are in positions of power, i will give my vote to the only party i trust to save our Nation, REFORM UK.

      @@nez9751 I care about what happens to people that’s all , I would definitely call myself normal . The times I have been called woke , like that’s a bad thing , made me realise that the things that I care about & want , make me woke so if the cap fits ! That’s all !

      @@marksykes5434 woke is not far removed from a social terrorist front, it’s very dangerous and sinister.
      Forget woke, it shouldn’t exist. You are obviously just a nice , good civilised person. ❤️ you aren’t woke in my opinion.

    Wow, an Englishman who said "law and order" correctly.

    I never liked the Office, not a fan of cringe comedy.
    Remember when Politics came out, saw that first sketch and switched off. Hated it and RG.
    Now I love RGs comedy but still can't crack a smile at that first sketch.

    Gervais says what everyone is really thinking but too ashamed to actually say it. He gets a lot of money and influence by just saying funny things about the weak and vulnerable. He’s the antidote to political correctness.

      Thus was long before the character of Jonathan pie existed. I wouldn't even say they were that similar. Ricky doesn't rant like Tom walker does. Pie is more like an Alf Garnett type character from the other side of the political spectrum. Difference is pie is hypocritical because he complains about people being hateful but spews nothing but hate himself
