this is a young gammon

Why do conservatives think helping your follow man is " leftist ". That says more about them then the homeless. Oh, and we aren't laughing with you, Simon. We are laughing at you.

Typical Daubney interview. How come when Labour were in power all the Left Wing comics still took the piss? It's just that Tory supporters and Right Wing types just don't like being criticsed.

Inreally like Simon's comedy but IU can't agree entirely with some of his stances.

A proposTrump, I think anyone who had even a sckeric of appreciation for this monster will regret it after the next (2024) election. There is not one positive, displayed by Trump, that could be beneficial to Humanity. We do not need another Hitler!

If a bit worried about myself, that my two favourite comedians today are Simon and Stuart Lee. I have no idea why, but they both are a bit original and are working a deeper vein than those who bounce across the stage with observations …..maybe it’s because both are must sees when analysing their comedy, and their ability to come away from their stage performance and give a considered position on what they are doing develop in their art.

Comedy genius 👏👏👏👏

If what's been said here is true, it just goes to show how out of touch politicians and comedians are with half the population then?

I'm middle of the road politically but feel that the current narrative in this country, and probably elsewhere, gives comedians a shield to hide behind. If the f-off 'gag' was used against me I'd of wanted my money back. There's too much of a reliance on bad language anyway, if you need sweating and crudeity in your act that your not very good. I turn plenty off because of that. The greats such as Bob Monkhouse never had to pad it out like that.

Why is the presenter a foot higher ?

Comedy is not in any way left, far from it. The BBC/CNN/Communists ban anyone who doesn't sing their tune. That's why comedy has become totally dead (which is the way they want it). "Don't laugh slave just do as you are told".

yes sir top charva

Well thought out, well reasoned, well said. Hear Hear.

well said serjit. GIVE EM HELL BOYS

Yo dude

Give me a sloppy kiss surjit

What are you talking about? It's only the brainless ones on the left who were on the globalists sheep trail. The rest of us see the vampire in the room and HATE watching corporatism drain the life out of its nation slaves.

Comedy, good comedy, is a-political. It might look that way from were you're sitting

When Simon Evans said he was going to be a comedian everybody laughed. Well, they're not laughing now are they? Did he come up with brexit? That's a joke. He's as funny as a tory. Competiton from other tory comics though. I saw a fab Double act. 2022 summer season: Truss & Kwateng - clowns & magicians who made all this money disappear. The seats were too expensive. They were following a long run by this big fat tousled haired buffoon who wouldn't leave the stage. Loads of people walked out. He's still on tour but now he keeps getting bad reviews... I've got a million of 'em- I'm here all week

Excellent interview fuelled by excellent questions and a presenter willing to give time for thoughtful answers. The lefty comedians I hear on Radio 4 are conformists who repeat each other's sneery remarks about the Daily Mail, Brexit, immigration, Suella Braverman, GB News, Rishi Sunak and Jacob Rees Mogg. It's so tedious that I switch off the News Quiz or anything with Mark Steel. Luckily I don't pay for this via a TV licence because I have no TV. You tube is better!

Woke comedy : As funny as piles !

Excellent!!

the posh Geoff Northcott - I kind of admire his bravery but also wonder if he's a bit of a complacent old boomer :)

You could talk bollocks for the UK

You are very ironic

But everyone I've spoke to who understands what's happening quite openly states it was a mistake. The polls demonstrate that. THe economy demonstrates that. The deals we have established which dwarf our previous ones show that. The businesses that have folded and the ones which remain say that it's a joke now. How can you argue for your democratic right right to shaft everyone so you get your way. It helps nobody but the rich. I can't see a valid argument for it. Not one single one apart from take back control, which is rubbish anyway whilst you have a House of Lords, and a tax system that favours the wealthy. It's just a big fat lie.

He is correct, but understates reality. The entire BBC is to the left of Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot - and employ more criminal child-molesters.

In terms of the iceberg, he's right.

Saw him live at our small Town Hall , very funny man. In ‘ real life’ ☺️ he’s just has he appears on TV. Lovely man.

“Basically a bit thick” seems a pretty astute assessment of Trump supporters and hardcore Brexiteers. Simon’s a great comic though.

Why is comedy so left wing? - has anyone looked at the right and extreme right wing shower of shit that's been in Westminster for 12 fucking awful years ?

The thing you're missing is that the uneducated working class (your words not mine) WERE LIED TO!

A drag act is a marginalised person? When everyone is required to go along with their LARPing they are in charge, not marginalised.

Cracking interview all round……😊 Simon is easily my favourite comedian working today…….. and now, proven to be an all round good egg 🥳intelligent, thoughtful and articulate……… Good man, Carry On.

A bright, funny, articulate man, who I could listen to all day. I voted remain.

sounds exactly like jeremy vine

Mock the Week is will be gone in another couple of weeks -- but Brexiteers will still be here laughing our socks off and still loving Nigel Farage. Bye, bye Dara and the tiresome, mindless, endless, predictable left-wing clichés, sarcasm, and ad hominem which since 2016 was presented as humour. lol.

Love Simon as a comedian but also wow what an interviewee, thoroughly enjoyed.

I wonder what arguments Simon will be using today in 2022? Will he still be defending Brexit and the performance of the Tory Government?

6:52 - These days, if you say you're English, You'll be thrown in to jail - Stuart Lee

Sorry Simon. The women on Mock the Week are very weak. Even today.

I was surprised to hear Simon say it was a good thing to have affirmative action to make sure there were as many females as males on a show, even if it made the show less funny.

Centre-right I don't mind

Good looking girl too

The tapestry gag was great

Comedy is inherently left-wing in the true sense of the term, because by nature it mocks "the establishment" (in the broadest sense, - not just political, but established notions, pretentiousness etc). A comedy double act will often have a straight man who embodies pretentiousness or some kind of order, an a subversive comic partner. Of course "left wing" as the term is now commonly understood IS the establishment, the enforced groupthink and cancel culture.

Joanna Williams is absolutely fabulous. This deserves way more views.

Missing him on Sky. Especially good energy for the anchor or host role or whatever you want to call it.

YESSS SARAH FUCKING UKIP COME ON I LOVE YA

Sky became woke
