I'm so grateful I grew up watching this as an early teenager 20 years ago, and equally glad it's still going. Ian and Paul are brilliantly funny and on the mark.

You can buy a passport from many countries, that will still be cheaper than the cost of sending migrants to Rwanda. Nevis & St Kitts passports are around £100K!
Nothing makes me happier than the _savagery_ of Ian and Paul. Like, I know British satire tends to be a lot closer to the line than most, but damn these two take it to another level 😂 My partner buys Ian's publication, Private Eye, and it's no different in there either 😂
Prohibition and the war on drugs are such successes, that I can understand why they want to extend this to cigarettes. It is not like there is already a lively trade in illegal cigs, is there? What we need to do is to investigate and address why people are using substances. When I was working as a tutor in the prison system, most women had been incarcerated due to drugs offences. And most of them had taken drugs as self medication.
At the bare minimum, they're doing it differently this time in the hope that the problem last time was taking as l things away from people rather than stopping them having them in the first place, but I think that they very much underestimate the number of underage smokers that there already are.
@@billyfox6368 Prohibition is prohibition. It does not work. What works is addressing the reasons why people drink/smoke/take drugs...But that takes a lot of effort, it is complex and not as easy to understand and sexy as saying "We'll put an end to cigarette smoking".
I don't like that Mercer guy, i think he's bad news.. something about him says "ticking time bomb" "one nervous breakdown away from a violent coup attempt".
Oh, come on! If he were gay, he would be better dressed, in better physical condition, and a h*ll of a lot more charming. Besides, his continual aggression is DEFINITELY a testosterone overload problem.
16:06 That was a stupid one, BBC. Going to his deaths willingly, not believing those he did so much for would betray him -- Lady Di would have been a better analogy -.-
They have never, at any point, claimed to be "rebels". In fact nearly every week Paul is mocking how establishment Ian is. As for Merton, the only thing that makes him "establishment" is being a straight cis white guy - there was no privilege in his background 😂

"For northeners who don't find pigeons dirty enough."
I'm a northerner and I nearly pissed my pants 😂
I’m a northerner, and this is offensive. 😉
@@andrewdurham909you have the reet to be offended
I'm a pigeon and find this offensive.

"a great bloke and I want to live" 😂
Hard to believe I've been watching this show for over 30 years. I wish we had something even approaching the calibre of HIGNFY on Irish TV

I'll sell mine for 500 quid😂😂😂

Honestly it’s depressing watching them be excited that may is going cus things only got some much worse
July 2024 - they're OUT.

@@annepoitrineau5650 I agree, but I still think that there is a difference between a gradual and an immediate ban.
@@billyfox6368 That is true too. But also doomed.
This. It will just empower gangs
Oh, Ads every 90 seconds, makes the viewing so much better
I’m not getting ads
adblockers work a treat
UA-cam premium takes care of that.
I like knowing someone is getting paid something for putting this out there.
skip to the end and start the video again
Wonderful stuff
I don't like that Mercer guy, i think he's bad news.. something about him says "ticking time bomb" "one nervous breakdown away from a violent coup attempt".
on thursday, he lost his seat. an absolute win for the country that
1:13 lol
Don’t worry, Rishis wife will pay it back
Rattitude got to find that in number 10 on Richie’s coffee table
Wow.
I thought I was the only person who noticed Putin is gay.
Oh, come on! If he were gay, he would be better dressed, in better physical condition, and a h*ll of a lot more charming.

I thought so but then seen that picture of him topless on the horse and that convinced me he’s definitely not 😂
Angus!
Is the right answer
fuckin love Kathy Burke
Did we get or will we get any of the Ruand money back?. Or will we see loads of rolls royces being bought by Ruandan government ministers.
No refunds. The UK broke the contract
Nope. And we never will.
That means all poor children should be locked up for breaking that law! I think that’s what ASBO were all about!
oh hey that's the pointless man
That's what I always think!! 😂
harsh to call Alastair Campbell that but sure
Way way WAYYYYYYYY too many ad breaks.
Sorry, I'm out.
It's okay
@@camron.w1841 Sorry, but 24 minutes of video with around 14 minutes of ads? That is worse that your average tv channel.
Wonderful compilation of Ian Hislop being 85% wrong on everything.
YOUR SACkED
Heavens above, the smoker gives more in revenue to HMRC than it costs for the treatment. Go figure 🙄😊
Ian hislop, like the child at school who baits to people to fight then hides behind his mummy
Im from up north ...pigeons are fucking horrible
Oh Chris Whitty thinks it should be banned. Then let's ban it. Laugh now please, that's the whole joke.

Still pretending to be rebels but as establishment as Sunak is. Boring Merton making Trump jokes
Are you seriously suggesting trump isn't establishment? 🤣
Are you seriously suggesting that Johnson is NOT establishment?
mate, the only boring one is you. Grüße aus Australien. Tschüss.
WHAT?

Comedians? What comedians?
You're so cool
It's called political satire. It's funny if you understand it.
Yeah, they've only been doing this show for 30 years. Fuck em, what do they know about humour?
