Police refuse to arrest unfunny comedians

Graham Linehan's arrest has highlighted an hypocrisy, whereby the writer of Father Ted could be jailed but the creators of Mrs Brown's Boys roams free. No attempt has been made to arrest Jim Davidson or to end the reign of terror that is Netflix Comedy Specials.

Being a grumpy, hateful middle-aged man is what all comedians become - even the women. Lineham is just a Poundland John Cleese, furious that his best jokes are behind him and struggling to keep up the alimony payments.

Under current laws, Lineham stands accused of spreading hateful words - but the real crime is not writing anything good since the 90s.
