Jimmy Carr breaks silence over ‘career-ending’ holocaust joke as he’s slammed by celebs

thesun.co.uk:

JIMMY Carr has broken his silence after facing a huge backlash over a joke about the genocide of gypsies in the holocaust. Taking to the stage last night for a stand-up show at the Whitley Bay Playhouse, Jimmy told the audience "the joke that ends my career is already out there." It comes after the comedian's His Dark Materials Netflix special saw him joke the mass murder of Romani and Sinti people during World War II was a positive thing.

According to the Mirror, a heckler yelled out: "Are we going to talk about the holocaust?" Jimmy replied: "We are going to talk about cancel culture, the whole thing. "We are going to talk about f***ing everything people.

Relax." After joking about offending the LGBT community, Jimmy said: "We are speaking my friends in the last chance saloon. "What I am saying on stage this evening is barely acceptable now.

In ten years f***ing forget about it. @font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.svg#') format('svg');font-style:normal;font-weight:400;font-display:swap;}@font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.svg#') format('svg');font-style:normal;font-weight:500;font-display:swap;}@font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-HeavyNarrow.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-HeavyNarrow.woff').
