    Does she think that's funny?

    Jo Brand's comment after Nigel Farage had a milkshake thrown over him. 'I'm thinking why bother with a milkshake when you could get some battery acid?' That's humour! I never found her funny in the first place but as far as I'm concerned that's way out of order and a disgusting remark. Surely the police should take action as that is incitement to violence. Of course a BBC spokesman backed her but what would expect from a left wing organisation!

    Coming from someone who’s had to go through life looking as hideous as her!

    If that was Farage or Boris making the same comment about Brand all the Left Wing fanatics would be screaming for legal action.

    Farage should take legal action but I guess he won’t because he’s not a f king wet lettuce unlike people like Bland.

    Yes....I know I spelt it wrong.

    Don't agree with what she said. But you can't have it both ways..

    I struggle to have any sympathy with a bloke who said he would pick up a rifle if Brexit wasn't delivered, isn't that inciting violence?

    Or who smeared Jo Cox's widower after her murder. Or who has poisoned and divided our country as much as he has leading to people shouting 'betrayal' and 'traitors' at others.

    That's before you get onto his workshy record as an MEP.

    There is only one dangerous person out of Jo Brand and Nigel Farage.

    Idiot! I don't see the poison and divide - did the majority not vote for him overwhelmingly? Do you not understand the meaning of majority? It's as simple as 123 so look it up!

    Jo Brand should be locked up!

    You're right - it is simple but you're not grasping it. Its like the HRK situation all over again.

    Again, I'm not sure why I reply - maybe its my bit for care in the community.

    Did the majority of people vote for him overwhelmingly.....No

    Do I understand the meaning of a majority....yes, and I'll explain it to you now.

    A majority is when you have a greater part share of something, in political terms - more than half. Enough to win a vote if everyone took part.

    His party took 31.6% of vote share -Not a majority

    They took 29 out of 73 seats - Not a majority

    Did his party win more seats than any other party - Yes.
    Did the majority overwhelmingly vote for him - No
    Did he win a majority - No

    She didn't mention Farage.
    The programme was recorded, the BBC didn't feel the need to edit it out.
    It wasn't funny.

    Oh holy crap, what a foo kin snowflake society we live in. These right wing muppets cannot take a joke. Those complaining really need to take a hard look at themselves. I’m sorry if you all feel offended this joke.

    100% agree with this. I find the most offended in our society seem to be the right wingers who call everyone else a snowflake.

    "Bland" - I agree with you Regis but when Danny Baker got fired for his tweet within a day and no comment from the beeb (or her) as yet on her lack of sensitivity towards the victims of acid attacks it's double standards.
