THERE probably aren’t many people who could spin a positive out of being labelled a “Marxist, terrorist supporting scumbag”, but Tadhg Hickey has somehow managed.
Ahead of his gig in Glasgow on Tuesday evening, the comic spoke about mixing politics and comedy, his views on ScottishHickey’s videos on YouTube and TikTok – where he tackles topics like loyalism and the royal family – have racked up hundreds of thousands of views. “There’s one on racism as well. I feel like we’re taking the piss out of ourselves, we’re certainly taking the piss out the British establishment and the Irish establishment.Politics is of great interest to Hickey and it’s turned out to be something that’s helped him gain a number of opportunities.
He explained: “I’ve developed relationships and friendships with Scottish people over my career and they would remind me of my friends in the north of Ireland who would feel like theare lurching further to the right and to their own self-interest with no regard for supporting Scottish needs or the needs of people in the north of Ireland.”
“Even on an economic ground it’s something I’d like to see. All the ideas there were dependent on independence so it’s always been my viewpoint that for social and political issues we need to think about unity first and foremost.
