I'm not buying that really. Shamrock United are a petty Irish football club in a country where soccer is, I believe, a minority sport. I don't think that would translate to UK. Maybe - maybe - one or two Scottish clubs but, even then, I doubt it. Yeah. It's rubbish. Footie fans traditionally love the Queen and royalty. I mean this maybe true for a large number / majority but as somebody who uses to work at football ground, the things they can disrespect are legend.

About as accurate as your use of “rent free”.

I rather like Kevin Bridges. There's a nice YouTube clip of him and Frankie Boyle in conversation. They come across as really close and affectionate friends. It's also very funny.

I’m glad you understood it enough to find it unfunny.

“ During his show Bridges said he wore "a black suit in tribute", and went on to say the Queen is 'not going to be the only old woman to die this winter'.”

I'm not sure Bridges has a firm grasp on the seasons.

Like so much of The Guardian's output, it's crude, spiteful frot. Shallow piss.

It's funny seeing the snowflakes and gammons on the right being outraged by others in the rational center saying nice things about Brenda and Charlie and being incredibly respectful therefore not living up to their idiots view of the world, so much do they have make up that we of the rational center are outraged.
The right, quear lot all round really

Oh yeah. Yank comedians are famously subtle and incisive.

So you’re defending Bridges now?

Are there any political cartoons that are ever funny? I know all American ones are only funny in their terribleness.
