I Was a Teenage Racist

He's done it all! Well, not all. More than enough, though.

From: Te Papa-i-Oea | Palmerston

Hey everybody! Have you ever noticed how the entire world’s going through a vast cultural upheaval? As straight, white, male comedians the world over either crash and burn complaining about equality and wokeness, or perform stunning handbrake turns pretending they were never part of the problem, loser comedian Simon Kingsley-Holmes has decided to own up.

Coming from a conservative background, he has slowly realised that the views he grew up with and loudly espoused were wrong and now seems ample time to rip the piss out of his past self. From attempting to solve the Northern Ireland question aged seven to defending racist terms as a teenager in New Zealand, Simon has done it all with the kind of lack of self-awareness that only a true comedian could muster. If you want the satisfaction of hearing an Englishman admit that you were right, or if you just want to laugh at a complete prat, then welcome, friend ... I’m here for you!
