More proof that modern comedy has become woke only ‘entertainment’.
This time it’s Father Ted writer and stand up, Graham Linehan’s turn to be cancelled for his views on gender bollocks.
Banned by the same hypocrites who probably pissed themselves at him poking fun at the catholic priesthood, but don’t like his sensible idea that women can’t have a cock.
Apparently, an online campaign brought his despicable views to the attention of the venue and felt compelled to release the following statement.
“ We are an inclusive venue and will not allow such views to violate our space.”
I think they need to look up the word ‘inclusive’ in a dictionary.
How the fuck is censorship of someone you don’t agree with inclusive?
Sounds like the Leith Arches is an ‘exclusive’ venue to me.
Exclusively woke.

The Edinburgh Cringe
Those with even a passing interest in such things will be aware that Edinburgh’s annual International Festival is one of the greatest events in the world’s calendar for ‘the performing arts’.
Time was that The Fringe in particular was considered to be ‘avant-garde’; a place where performers could express themselves in ways which might be considered outlandish, boundary-pushing or controversial.
Not so much these days, it seems. Take the case of Irish performer and writer Graham Linehan (creator of the legendary ‘Father Ted’), whose stand-up gigs have been ‘cancelled’ twice at short notice, because his views don’t ‘align’ with the overall values of the owners*.
Yeah you guessed it. Linhan has expressed utterly outrageous opinions on gender issues; fascistic notions such as ‘women don’t have penises’. Shocking, isn’t it? In the face of this ‘cancellation’, Linehan resorted to performing outside the Scottish Parliament as a form of protest.
So there you have it. The creeping censorship continues. ‘Sure, you can perform here, as long as we agree with what you say’.
Edinburgh Cringe indeed.
