That figures:
Cleese has been a stale old gammon for a long time now. Remarkably non-self-aware and in total denial as to his privilege. He was apparently ranting on BBC 4 earlier about how he’d never get a platform on the BBC. A dull old man ranting against the BBC from a high-profile platform on the BBC. The very same BBC that gave him any status and success he has enjoyed in life. A total bell-end.
Let’s see what Cleese has to say when he starts on GB. I’ve left twitter so don’t know what he says these days on there.
I’ve never seen it but I have seen the societal damage Fox has done in the US.That would require one to give some of one's attention to the output of said channel. Bugger that for a game of soldiers.

From reading Michael Palin's diaries, I got the impression that he was always like that. Mr Palin of course is far too nice to come out and say it (or at least, far too nice to publish the bits of his diaries where he did), but he doesn't have to: the accounts of the various dealings with the Pythons makes it clear that Cleese was always the contrary one, never satisfied with the considerable amount that he had already got.He is basically Basil Fawlty in real life these days isn't he?
Cleese has been moving increasingly to the right for decades. Scratch the skin of an English public school educated Cambridge Footlights alumnus, and you will frequently find a reactionary old fart.
Yes I do vaguely recall something like that. The fact is however, Cleese’s opinion on anything could not be less relevant to the modern world.Didn't he co-write a child-psychology book, with a media-psychiatrist type, which claimed that boys became gay because their fathers had not demonstrated a happy enough model of what a "being a man" is? And I seem to remember a derogatory comment about "Half-educated tenement Scots" running the English press.
