Not the only censorship of the night either, they cut the sound on Jack Whitehall as well
The joke is weird as hell though, as it kinda implicates Andy Burnham as being in the same circles as Peter Mandelson, when Burnham was the one being fucked over by his own party
I definitely didn’t take it that way - they’re both politicians, Labour politicians at that. I think that’s enough of a link for a joke without needing to read anything extra into it.
Being weird doesn’t justify censorship, and I don’t think the joke does what you suggest it does.
sees Andy Burnham
This is the only party he’s allowed into these days
(referring to his exclusion by the Labour party from standing as an MP)
sees Lisa Nandy is sitting at the same table
This must be the politicians’ table. I wonder who else is here, I think I saw Peter Mandelson on the list. Oh, wait, that was another list…
(referring to a guest list and the Epstein list, no implication that Burnham and Mandelson are linked except by both being politicians)
Fuck this is dystopian
The Mastercard podium is the cherry on top
