With parents from Donegal and a history of being politically engaged in Anglo-Irish affairs, Frankie Boyle's latest standup show was always going to be incendiary and as usual, he had British politics in mind.

In terms of Brexit and Ireland, Boyle said that "there will be upsides to Brexit; the Irish can watch a British famine" and he wasn't finished there because the UK's Prime Minister Boris Johnson was next in his crosshairs.

"So, now we've got Boris Johnson an evolutionary dead-end of the Honey Monster. A bin bag of albino body parts. A cross between the Incredible Hulk and a Haribo fried egg. He's the fucking prime minister. The prime minister! It's not that he's the worst person for the job, he might be the worst mammal," said Boyle to massive applause at the King’s Theatre in Glasgow.

After completing his first major tour of Scotland in over 12 years, the cameras were on hand to capture the tour's final show and Boyle didn't disappoint.

Some other choice cuts involved his take on immigration in the UK- "Imagine what it’s like being an immigrant in Britain ..., being told you need to integrate more by people who spend their holidays pointing at pictures of egg and chips on the menu"  - and Theresa May's tenure as Prime Minister having "all the authority of the 'Do Not Tumble Dry’ label".

As for Johnson's colleagues, Michael Gove and Jacob Rees-Mogg, they also didn't escape the ire of the Scottish comedian.

"[Rees-Mogg] So weird and elongated, like his mum was too posh to dilate. He looks like he owns the laboratory that Michael Gove escaped from," he said.

You can take a look at Boyle's views on Johnson below.
