Jonathan Pie: Having a pop at Brexit and Tory voters is 'gross' | ITV News

Mocking Brexit and Tory voters is "gross", says Jonathan Pie actor Tom Walker - and a whole generation of comedians might soon have to find other things to joke about.

The comedian, whose career has grown with 14 years of Tory governments, admits much of his success has been down to Conservative chaos but accepts it's likely he'll soon have to turn on Keir Starmer.

Jonathan Pie is a satirical news correspondent who found success for his "off-air" moments in which the reporter rants about politics apparently without realising the camera is still rolling.

Pie's creator Walker, who is currently giving the Tories what could be his final kicking in a stage tour, spoke to ITV News about the future of UK politics, comedy and satire.

Jonathan Pie: Heroes & Villains is at The Duke of York's Theatre until Saturday, April 27.

I don't watch Pie for fun or light-hearted giggle sessions - his rants are generally how I am feeling , so I rage along with every word.

Walker's skill is that he's able to identify failings and hypocrisy on all political colours. It's just the Tories have given him bucketloads of material to work with. I'm sure whoever gets into power will not be treated any differently.

This man has become the voice of a frustrated, unheard, and tired generation.

He may see his character as satire, but in truth, it is spot on political observation. He may be playing for laughs, but all too often, Jonathan Pie sums up what is really going on and exactly how I feel.

Well that was one of the best interviews of Tom on Pie that I’ve seen in a long time. Normally the ‘interviewer’ takes a snobby stance that makes the whole thing just a defence of existence, but this guy actually allowed Tom to talk. Nice.

I remember when Rik Mayall’s character Alan B’Stard switched to New Labour. Genius.

In my teen years we had Spitting Image to mock the Politicians, Pie is a more intelligent grown up idea of humour. I'd like to see him on say Question Time put some heat under professional politicians

As an old left-winger I despair at both major parties. Starmers’ Labour Party is walking the same path as the Tories, just less extreme. No more heroes anymore.

He is the closest we've got to an opposition in this country. Seen this tour twice, in the diehard lefty redoubts of Oxford and Bath. The cheering to his rants (especially Coffey on the pier) was visceral. There's so much anger out there. Also, nice to see the mullet making a comeback.

This type of political satire was rife in the thatcher era and probably played a small part in their downfall in the end, as well as being a balm, it was also on mainstream tv all the time, Pie is exactly what we need unfortunately he is 1 man and we need an army of him.

I think the first clip I saw of Jonathan Pie was indeed him saying stop calling voters from the other side stupid. It doesn't help at all, and certainly doesn't win them over. Wise words I thought.

I'm a Labour supporter and even I think Keir is worthy of ridicule

Pie's cover of Trump's win in 2016 was pure comedic genius.

Sadly, I think that if Labour win the next election, Tom will not suffer from a lack of material.
