I'm surprised any of her stuff is shown. It's all shit.
She has won lots of awards and many say she is the cleverest comedian in the world
Did not think her impression was that good tbh.
Her female characters are better.
Why not read my post?
If he wanted to be prime minister, why didn't he go to Oxford and get good with words?

Awards are no guarantee of quality.

I did read your post. I just disagree with your conclusions.
I know that. But you ignored my argument and repeated your opinion so all I can do is refer you back to the post.

JC got 2 Es at A Level so going to Oxford was unpossible.

For the avoidance of faith
Toby Young managed to get in so it can't be that difficult.

I didn't ignore your argument: I pointed out its flaw.

And in any case, you don't need to go to Oxford or Cambridge to be "good at words".
It is of course possible that Corbyn is such an inept Alan Partridge type that his intention was just to say: "Oh, wow, Manuel: your English is good for a foreigner. Not like these guys. Not that they're foreigners the way you are. Well, some of them were born here, but you know what I mean".
If that's what people think happened, then in some ways that's worse. He's even more incompetent and tactless than any of us realised.

Don't talk rubbish. Until at least the 1980s Oxford made 2 e offers to at least some people who passed their entry procedure.

wouldn't shout about it in public, but thought that was quite funny tbh
I seem to recall that journalistic straw-weight Polly Toynbee still managed to get into Oxford with just the one A-Level and that was an E I think, having previously failed her 11+. Having a famous journalist father was merely coincidental I'm sure.

umm i wonder if she had done a Mp of a certain other party you would have a different opinion of her work.
Many thought it made a change from seeing all the far left shit "comedians" who are on tv nowdays.
Now they really are all shit to use your term.

You speak for "Many"; useful.
You didn't. You ignored what I said and repeated your interpretation. I can't write anything as good as this so I'll just post the link. "English irony"
