Comedians, mock our Supreme Leader at your peril*
A Corbynista responds to Tracey Ullman's vile blasphemy.
Jack Schwartz, Spiked, 5th June 2018A new series of the sketch show lands, with Tracey Ullman mercilessly skewering Theresa May, Nicola Sturgeon and, in a new turn, environment secretary Michael Gove. Also in line for a roasting are Jeremy Corbyn, Angela Merkel and Rupert Murdoch. Ben Miller also makes an appearance.
