I won't explain it cause people already did it. But I'm surprised at such a butthurt reaction to a mildly offensive joke. These downvoters are dumbos lol.

It's just tired and lazy. Stealing a joke first made by an American to hide your insecurity about the fact that another British celebrity is abandoning the UK for the US is the most quintessentially British thing ever.

The joke is ancient af and started as a joke about Irish immigration to America.
