As Used On The Famous Nelson Mandela - Mark Thomas

I have always liked Mark Thomas' unusual blend of standup and political activism, and this wittily titled look at the UK arms trade has plenty of laughs - I particularly enjoyed the stunt with the Undercover Nun posing as a dealer. The overall feeling one comes away with, though, is sheer outrage that the British government is so culpable in the arming of vicious regimes with weapons and torture equipment. The lack of any authority accepting moral responsibility is fairly depressing, so the jokes are much needed.
