How liberal Edinburgh comics are panning PC

Kate Copstick, The Scotsman, 20th August 2017Comics stand-up for the politically incorrect at Fringe
Comedy is currently more prescriptive than at any time I can remember. Prescriptive of words, of subjects, even of opinions. And that is worrying. The current industry-standard stand-up has to abide by a list of prohibitions that make a gluten-free, vegan shopping expedition seem simple. There are 328 recognised gender identities, Leo Kearse tells his packed audience, and reads a few from his phone. Canada has just passed a law making the non-use of the correct gender pronoun in any given situation an offence, he says. He thinks this is a bit much.

Enjoy 15 minutes of stand up and chat with comedian and writer, Andrew Doyle. Probably best known as co-writer of the provocative Jonathan Pie web series, Andrew discusses the nature of offense in comedy. When did the left lose the ability to debate with those that disagree?
Martin Walker, Broadway Baby, 2nd July 2017Fringe 2017 - Andrew Doyle: Thought Crimes
Andrew Doyle doesn't know his left from his right. But then, neither does anyone else.
