The Mash Report, the BBC satirical show which was accused of "left-wing bias", has been axed and will not return for another season.
The programme, a comic take on the week's news which featured Nish Kumar and Rachel Parris, first aired in 2017.
But in recent months there have been calls in post-Brexit Britain to cancel comedy shows now considered "unpatriotic" and replace them with "pro-British" shows.
The BBC said in a statement: "We are very proud of The Mash Report but, in order to make room for new comedy shows, we sometimes have to make difficult decisions and it won't be returning.
"We would like to thank all those involved in four brilliant series and hope to work with Nish Kumar, Rachel Parris and the team in the future."
In 2018, broadcaster Andrew Neil - chair of forthcoming right-wing news channel GB News - singled out The Mash Report while complaining that the corporation's comedy output was too left-wing,
He called the BBC Two programme "self-satisfied, self-adulatory, unchallenged left-wing propaganda".
New director-general Tim Davie - appointed by the Conservative government - previously dismissed reports that he planned to overhaul BBC comedy, saying "comedy has always been poking at authority".
But he said: "We need to nurture brilliant writers from all kind of perspectives" and there must be "no assumed point of view".
