Eat the Rich: Played with in many episodes. Particularly obvious in a series 3 segment where bankers are offered cash on the street on the condition they state "I'm a dirty little banker".

Black Comedy: Many of the topics tackled by the show are quite serious such as wars and human rights violations, with the comedy deriving from characters being for these things, such as Double Fist TV and Dale Mailey segments.

Distinction Without a Difference: The character of Eugene X, a South African white supremacist, says that he is not racist, some humans are just superior.

comment
James Twottington-Burbage MP is incredibly rude to his Liberal Democrat colleague, Barnaby, later pestering members of UKIP to try and integrate himself with the party and insisting that they pay him back for coffee when things go sour. He later tries declaring war on Romania to stop immigration, arguing that the mass movement of people counts as an invasion on Romania's behalf.

Don't Explain the Joke: Many of the segments not featuring recurring characters begin with intros in order to explain what issue is being satirized.
