He makes me laugh. A little while ago he 'cancelled' himself before the venue he was due to appear at got the chance to 'cancel' him.
There’s probably quite a funny Basil Fawlty or Pythonesque sketch to be done about this subject, but Cleese seemed to lose his sense of humour at some point
This is his sense of humour. Taking the pee where it needs to be taken.
If the players are good enough, they'll get in the team.

Back in the 80's, at a management seminar, we were told that at least 2% of all employees must be from an ethnic background, regardless. That figure may have changed now. Don't know. However, one guy said that if applicants, whoever they were, didn't meet the requirements and have the qualifications, then they wouldn't get the job. And why should he not be able to hire just who he liked or disliked, anyway, regardless. Because it's the law, came the reply. Does the law apply to the selection of players in a team? Any team?
Perlease!
But no one has suggested that the BBC would stop showing the England team only he.
It didn’t sound like he was making a joke about it
It's called sarcasm. You don't really believe he wants the BBC to stop showing the England team, surely. Like many others he's sick of all the 'woke' rubbish.
Oh the irony - hardly anybody seems to be getting it !
Weird, isn't it, Shirley. Maybe a sense of humour isn't 'woke' either.
I’m afraid it was lost on me although I should of realised as it came from JC, I like his humour, always have done
As soon as I read the article I thought 'he's being ironic' ! Cleese is anything but 'woke' !!
I think John Cleese is correct about the comedians and the cancel culture but i am afraid he is going a bit gaga too. It is sad.
"You don't really believe he wants the BBC to stop showing the England team, surely"

The question is: does he?
They aren't all white anyway, never mind all blonde.
Nor are they employed the BBC.
Actually, it isn't that he wants the BBC to stop showing the team, but that he thinks the BBC might. When there's no suggestion of it. It is just going to get people worked up about nothing. There is no mention of him joking about it.
They ( the girls) do all look alike though.
There are two black girls .
Yes Andres, there is no problem with diversity. They did us all proud.
He is a nasty, bitter man. I had the misfortune of meeting him many years ago
The DM has it right, "Cleese's comments are no doubt in response to former BBC head of comedy Shane Allen, who previously said that if the Beeb were commissioning a new show these days, 'it's not going to be [by] six Oxbridge white blokes'."
He used to be really funny, but he has turned into a grumpy old git.
