      @@justin.booth. In a sense you're both correct. It is important to distinguish between modern and traditional meanings of politically correct.
      Traditional PC is negatively geared - i.e., it involves omitting language and topics people may find offensive. YM is certainly very PC in this sense.
      Modern PC is positively geared - i.e., it involves actively including language and topics designed to pander to people. YM is not PC in this sense.

      The best comedy lies in reality. YM & YPM were inspired by information from moles inside parliament and the civil service. It is funny, yes, but also educational as to how politics really works. Thatcher was said to be a big fan and made sure to tape every episode so she wouldn't miss one.
