Alistair says "there is no money in comedy", comedians do it for the love of doing it and that is one of the reasons why there are far less women in comedy.
In this interview they discuss what happened to Alistair William's comedy career due to him being pro-BREXIT. Sargon asked him who is it that are the thought police in the field of comedy, who is policing comedy in the UK? Alistair says it is difficult to identify who orbits him and then phones the comedy clubs to get the comedy acts cancelled or bookings stopped.
He says that it only began happening when he came out as pro-Brexit. They both agree that they have a moral responsibility to call out the politicians with their comedy, it's the right thing to do.
When you are driven out of the main comedy venues, then you create your own niche market, Alistair says that other opportunities do open up before you. Comedy is one of the main British exports in the entertainment industry and British people love comedy.
The video is titled: "How Political Correctness Is Strangling British comedy". I don't agree with the guys on their view of Farage due to what we know that he did in the EU parliament to delay BREXIT beyond March, 2019.
Apart from that it is a great interview and worth listening too. Personally, I like Alistair Williams, the Great White British Male, sometimes he is very funny. I think he has a huge untapped potential as a comedian.
