American here-the first I’d ever heard of Jimmy’s tax problems was on Cats, when it was one of the topics of the week. When Jimmy said, “In my defense-well, I got nothing”. I had to look up the story, and my respect for him for that statement went sky high! More people ought to do that. Anyway, I’ve liked him ever since. You’ve got me as a fan, Jimmy!

When jimmy talks about ‘call on the day’….. even if you say “ I don’t know what to say”…. Call’em on the day. My Mother battling cancer…said the exact same thing! “Son, no matter what… call them…even if you say ‘I didn’t know what to say’ at least acknowledge what they’re going through” It means more than we know. It shows empathy, in a difficult time. ❤

As someone who was cancelled for very personal financially related reasons, and it took 14 months to even get a hint of something (in a very different world to comedy) the only thing I’ve ever been offended by you is the “I’ve been cancelled” … otherwise mate you are the fkn bomb, absolutely loved your new Netflix show, keep up the awesome!!

Just because the cancellation didn't succeed, doesn't mean it wasn't attempted. Lots of attempts at cancellation fail and the way Jimmy responded helped enormously. It also helped that his accusers, mostly Tory MPs, were quickly exposed as hypocrites. They went on and on about Jimmy Carr but when, shortly after Tory supporter and donor, Gary Barlow was found to have done something worse and on a much bigger scale and didn't offer to pay it back, it was suddenly, "We can't comment on individual cases"! Utterly hypocritical but it helped Jimmy's position. :)

yyYYees finally (0:28) Jimmy says what we've all thought off Cameron for doing that, "called out" well Cameron likely just had people better able to hide where Cameron moves his earnings away from HMRC. (Tid bit on the "HMRC"; I googled it to be sure it was correct, and it was, just, I am Swedish, such that I've never had anything to do with British tax and that, kinda funny, due to Jimmy Carr being barked at for tax avoidance and I've seen KZfaq videos so many times over, that I had the "HMRC" printed into my memory) Also due to "Have I got news for you" and other British content I am more aware of the british politics, and the recent joke that have been "the British PM post" (May-Liz-Boris), (oh and FYI Sweden have had a similar issue with "no-good PM" just prior to our last election where we had to do a re-election so the UK is not the only place to have such issues with electing twits for PM post) All that to say that I am quite aware of how moronic Cameron was to piss on Jimmy Carr, when he dam well have done the very same thing. Really a case of "glass house".

Because it was unethical even though it was legal. Lots of things aren't against the law but aren't really 'the right thing to do'. FWIW I believe the law was changed a while later to make the thing he did illegal, because enough people believed it was a bad thing to do. He didn't legally need to give the money back but he was embarrassed enough by how upset people were that he decided to. It sounds like something he hadn't thought super hard about before doing.

There is a difference between satire and comedy. A lot of comedians seem to do satire without realizing it. What I mean by satire is any comedy that forces you to pronounce on the value of something. Even here Jimmy uses the words ,Tory c*nt. Dark comedy is not predicated on foul language.. When laurel and Hardy fall off a ladder they are being funny, when you call someone a derogatory phrase or use it to tell a joke, it is much less obvious whether you mean it or whether you have to mean it in context of the joke for the joke to work. Jimmy if you read this I love you, but it has nothing to do with your comedy, you're a great host and an adorable person, if that isn't good enough for the people who are thinking of hiring you, I'm sorry, but being outrageously funny has a lot less to do with why people like to see Jimmy Carr. It is more about your overall persona and it's inclusion into what is available as entertainment. If you tell a Joke or say anything that people don't like, that should always be naturally disconcerting and never ignored.
