Cleverly made the joke to female guests while attending a Downing Street reception earlier this month.
Yikes! The added context makes it even worse.
You just can’t joke about anything anymore. The other day I went to church with my NAMBLA shirt on and the priests didn’t appreciate it at all.
Not A Moron But Lazy American? Never Ask My Brother’s Legs Anything?
What are you trying to say here?!?
Neutering A Mongoose Brings Legal Anguish.
Hey now
Hey now don’t dream it’s over!
He made a joke in poor taste about his own wife. Not like he advocated raping strangers. Not like he advocated raping his own wife, it was a poor joke. It was meant in a self-deprecating manor.
Jesus people, let a bad joke go. I’m quite sure he hates himself for it and is quite regretful. Or shall we beat his ass more?
When conservatives talk “cancel culture”, this is the kinda thing they point to. Don’t feed them ammo.
quite sure he hates himself for it and is quite regretful.
He’s a Tory politician. He wouldn’t hate himself for selling his mom for an extra year of shitting on poor people and immigrants. He definitely doesn’t hate himself for this.
He hates that he was called out for it, but that’s it.
God’s sake. I mean… At least he’s apologising? I could imagine some of our recent lot doubling down on this and refusing to give in to wokeness blah blah blah…
But yeah. I’m really trying hard to be charitable cos it’s Christmas and everything. That’s not really pleasant stuff to hear from the guy who is in charge of the Police (over 1,100 under investigation for sexual assault or domestic violence atm)
looks like cleverly isn’t very clever with his jokes
Neither is this comment section.
OH HO HO HAH HAH!!! RAPE JOKES EH WOT?!?
SO TERRIBLY WITTY EH OLD CHAP?!?
MARVELLOUS I SAY, MARVELLOUS!!!
He didn’t make a joke about raping his wife, it was a self deprecating joke about making it so his wife wouldn’t realize there are better men out there.
But good on you for being so offended by something that didn’t even happen. Marvelous, I say, marvelous.
According to MBFC, CNN has bias by omission and consistently fails fact checks. Not sure why this story is allowed.
What exactly is wrong with the cnn story?
