The Mash Report had to censor Boris Johnson quotes because they breach Dave’s guidelines
It was good news when the Dave TV channel picked up the Mash Report after it was dropped by the BBC, because we’d hate to have seen the last of their biting satirical takes.
Such as this NSFW message on behalf of women.

We couldn’t leave out this far too real guide to reducing immigration.
And if you’re confused about BBC impartiality, this might help.
Is #TheMashReport just self-adulatory liberal propaganda? 🤷♂️

“Respect”
We can’t tell you exactly what was said, but there was definitely a homophobic slur, some more than casual racism and a sizeable portion of misogyny.
Nish Kumar put it in a sarcastic nutshell.
Pretty cool that we aren't allowed to broadcast things the Prime Minister has said because they're too racist. https://t.co/jjIEu1UYra

Oh well at least he didn't kill everyone

The namechecked James O’Brien appreciated it.

Be fair, Nish. You couldn’t broadcast *some* of them because they were too homophobic.

If you were wondering where the decidedly disrespectful label for Mr James O’Brien came from …
