Destitution: UK, Jonathan Pie 🇬🇧



YouTube comments, select:

.. It's not comedy it's political commentary, and it's true we're a broken country run by oligarchs.

.. Get involved in your local politics.

As Maggie Thatcher said: 'What we need is a return to Victorian values.' Destitution, poverty, the 'working poor,' the return of rickets and diptheria, freezing starvation for the majority, untold wealth for the minority.

Had tickets to see him in Basel a few years back. Unfortunately, the event was cancelled and he disappeared for awhile. He’s spot on.
