Toxic brand of humour
Jo Brand has made a joke about throwing battery acid at a politician instead of a milk shake. Nigel Farage was recently attacked by someone throwing a milk shake over him.
The joke was made on Radio 4's 'Heresy.' The BBC have issued a statement that Jo Brand's joke was not to be taken seriously. And that 'Heresy' was intentionally provocative and was eager to push the bounds of comedy. They should be ashamed of themselves for making excuses for this joke. Nigel Farage deserves protection from this toxic brand of humour.
