I was invited onto Good Morning Britain this morning to debate cancel culture following Davina McCall's suggestion that people shouldn't be cancelled over old tweets if they've grown and changed.
This was reported in the Sun as "Leo Kearse claims women in burkas ‘do look like letterboxes’". Watch the video and make up your own mind!
The burka is a symbol of patriarchal oppression. As a misogynist, I think this is great - but even I think that patriarchal symbols can be mocked.
Also, why is it a sackable offence to say burkas look a bit like letterboxes, but absolutely fine to describe middle aged white men as "gammons"? If one is racist, then both obviously are.
Britain is an incredibly diverse, warm and tolerant country. I wish people would stop castigating Britain and its aboriginal inhabitants.
0:24 The debate about cancel culture starts
2:37 There's a great moment where host Kate Garraway can't pronounce Dr Shola Mos-shogbamimu's name.
3:17 Dr Shola bangs on for aaaaaaages
6:26 I thought they asked me but really they wanted Dr Shola to talk for aaaaaaaages
8:42 I defend Boris's letterbox comment as not hateful, it's a visual gag, just like gammon, which is unacceptable for some reason. The real hate is from woke mobs trying to destroy people's lives.
