This week, Frankie Boyle’s Election Autopsy was an unapologetically frank assessment of the UK’s suicidal re-election of the Conservative Party. Boyle had the excellent rapper and writer Akala on to comment on the proposition that “Britain is racist to the core.” His answer was so good he even convinced the audience. This is what happens when broadcasters allow thoughtful, serious people to talk about important things on TV. No wonder it’s so rare. Instead the British media is dominated by an entrenched cast of mediocre old white guys who are either constantly trolling or else too complacent to bother. Pls watch here.
