The bullseye humour had the audience howling with mirth from the start. Pretty much everything Ms McGrath says is either inept, ignorant or just plain wrong.
At one point she says that, as a life-long anti-fascist, she really identifies with the person who finally killed Hitler, whoever it was. (Think about it).
‘Say what you like about the Taliban,’ she observes triumphantly, ‘at least
