Jo Brand 'Throw Acid instead of Milk Shake'!
I have to confess as never liking Jo Brand anyway, bit to slutty (yes I did mean SMUTTY but didn't realise until it was pointed out later that it said SLUTTY - I did not edit it out as I did not want it said I had done so after some had taken offence !) for me but I cannot believe, at the moment, the BBC is actually condoning her comment that instead of Milk Shakes being thrown at politicians it should be Corrosive substance i.e. Acid!
What a terrible terrible thing to say. When asked she said Freedom of Speech in COMEDY is " extremely important." What ever was she thinking - bet those who have suffered having Acid thrown in their faces will really find that funny!

Typical left wing response by the BBC.
I actually don't even find her funny. Not a very appropriate comment even if said in jest and not meant to be taken seriously.

Never been more on the same page.
At least she should be sacked from BBC contracts, at best cautioned and prosecuted by the Police. It struck me how she and those who condone this so called joke would feel if next week somebody did just what she said would be funny? It says as much about the BBC as it does about her. Disney332

Making such a comment whether in 'jest' or not is unacceptable.
I'm disappointed in Jo Brand as I actually normally like her. |

I don't see any difference in this and what the other person did with the 'royal' photo she should absolutely be sacked, both were in extremely bad taste and offensive,

I do find this whole milkshake fad thing a bit disturbing but that’s a whole different argument.

I’m not a great fan of Jo Brand, but I do recognise a poor joke on a satirical radio programme when I hear one. She immediately made it clear, on air, she was joking and criticised the milkshake stunts.
Radio 4 has a long tradition of satirical programmes and I’ve heard equally unsavoury ‘jokes’ that didn’t attract anything like the attention that this has. Let’s see it for what it is. |

As it was pre-recorded the BBC chose to broadcast it so I can't see how they can wash their hands of her.

She shouldn’t of said it, it’s not funny. The amount of acid attacks there has been lately might give nutters ideas. I’ve never really liked her anyway, another one who thinks she can say what she likes and get away with it.

I have actually listened to what she said.
The acid comment was a silly joke, which she confirmed immediately after saying it. Her point was that throwing milkshakes, even at Nigel Farage, is pathetic. Surprised Nigel Farage is such a snowflake when Jo Brand was actually condemning the milkshake attack on him. Edited at 06:43 PM. |
