If you shoot at mimes, should you use a silencer

Summary

This quote is a sarcastic play on words that humorously suggests using a silencer when shooting at mimes. It highlights the silent and non-verbal nature of mimes, as they perform without speaking. The use of a silencer, which reduces the noise of a firearm, emphasizes the irony and absurdity of attempting to make their silent performance even quieter. It sparks a comedic reflection on the context of the situation rather than endorsing any actual violence towards mimes.

Actually, I don't ever think there will be a men-only team of leadership in the Labour party again. People would look at it and say, 'What? Are there no women in the party to be part of the leadership? Do men want to do it all themselves?' It just won't happen again.
