BBC shows are awash with woke or left-wing comedians, a study has found.
Three-quarters of prime time slots are taken up by Tory-bashing or anti-Brexit comics.
New Director-General Tim Davie has vowed to overhaul the Beeb’s output after right-of-centre artists complained they cannot get a look in with leftie programme-makers.
The Campaign for Common Sense monitored 141 comics on 364 slots on BBC1, BBC2 and Radio 4 last month.
They found 268 slots were given to 99 comics with publicly pronounced left-leaning, pro-Remain or woke views, such as Nish Kumar.
Only four slots went to two comedians with Conservative, Brexiteer or anti-woke views.
The Beeb faces further criticism when a Vicar of Dibley Christmas special shows Dawn French’s character taking the knee and delivering a Black Lives Matter sermon.
The BBC said: “We judge our comedy on it being funny, how popular it is and whether it reflects a range of different voices and views.”
