It’s a comedy panel show where the participants are given a topic to talk nonsense about and hiding 5 truths in the speech.

The topic that Frankie Boyle has was ‘women’.
David Mitchell introduced the topic as ‘adult human female’!

as a previous poster has said - If DM has any GC leanings, he's kept bloody quiet about it, when we hear plenty of his other opinions.
I think all of the 'comedians' who appear on these shows on a revolving basis are either gutless cowards (if they are GC) or woke.
Though, TBH, I find DM a smug prick and still can't believe how funny he was on Peep Show and how unfunny he is now.

Glinner must know a lot of people in the entertainment biz.

And he has expressed his devastation at how few of his peers have been willing to stand with him. I suspect even behind the scenes, people have been too afraid to voice their opinion, lest someone found out.

David Mitchell wrote a really interesting piece about the idiocy of present hive mindedness last Sunday. Coincidentally, I'm sure, as he was referring to Miriam Margoyles. He was talking about how astonishing it is, that we hurl abuse at people for speaking the truth. Apposite, so soon after what happened to Rowling.

I've always loved him, ever since reading an interview where he was asked why he didn't have a flat screen telly (this was 10 or so years ago) and he flatly said, "Why would I? This one works." I loved his absolute refusal to be sucked into buying stuff for the sake of it, despite clear professional success. He's a very clever and independently minded man.

FB tweeted that he was going to be on the unbelievable truth, with the link. But he turned off replies so no one could reply to that tweet.

I wonder why the "adult human female" definition pisses off the TRAs so much. I mean, don't they in fact claim that trans women are female? (And if they don't, how long until they do?)

They'll claim anything but eventually the stuff they're claiming is so outlandish even they start feeling discomfort due to cognitive dissonance. At that point they usually look around to find a woman to be angry at.
