Luke Mockridge: Why outrage doesn't help people with disabilities – Culture

Everyone has been patting each other on the back for days. Mockridge must go! Who has not shaken their head after hearing about his “jokes” and those of his equally miserable buddies Nizar Akremi and Shayan Garcia about Paralympic athletes. The TV channel Sat 1 has cancelled Mockridge's new TV show. Bravo, well done! Mockridge has long been known for all kinds of underground things. Interestingly, he is now stumbling because of his, as he calls them, “jokes” about disabled people. Why?
