Comedian Under Investigation For ‘Transphobic’ Joke At London Comedy Club

I admit it – I laughed. That’s a pretty funny joke! It’s worth noting there’s nothing else online about this story aside from the statement put out by City Comedy Club and the replies from people in attendance discussing what happened. So it’s entirely possible there’s some context missing or that maybe there was something else comedian Adam Riley said that wound people up and prompted the London comedy club to apologise. If the issue is that one joke though? Pretty unfair on old Adam Riley, IMO.

Look at how vexed everyone is – even under the club’s apology post:

 

It’s not even an original joke either – Family Guy did a similar one years ago:

Unlike Family Guy, it seems Adam Riley isn’t immune to cancellation. Not sure what the comedy club means by ‘working with the authorities on this matter’ but it seems they’re willing to make an example of Riley to make up for allowing him on stage. Was anyone else in attendance that night who can provide us with more information?
