Comedians often court controversy with their acts and Frankie Boyle well known for raising a few eyebrows.
He is appearing at a festival in Belfast on Friday evening, but because of jokes he has made in the past about disability, some have vowed to take a stand against his show.
Chris Buckler reports.
Disabled people and their carers have real problems and real enemies without concocting new ones. This anti-Boyle bandwagon is, to say the least, tiresome. Sure, Boyle made a couple crap remarks FIVE YEARS ago but he’s also spoken out against the WCA and ideological austerity plenty of times since then. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone ‘n all that.
