On Sunday's episode of "Last Week Tonight," John Oliver ripped the late Queen Elizabeth, but he often traffics in irreverence. You can watch the clip below.

The British American comedian made fun of the monarch, who died last week at 96, by making fun of the Prime Minister's explanation for opposing a proposed windfall profit tax on oil companies.

Oliver said, "Look, I'm just gonna say this, and you may not like it, but it doesn't make it any less true." For at least a week, she won't get destroyed for that.

The new King Charles was burned by Oliver. The host pointed to a photo of Elizabeth's son and successor and declared that things are not good in the U.K. The guy is going to be rich.

“The nicest thing the Queen of England ever did for anyone was die the week that woman became prime minister. Because for at least a week, she's not going to be getting justifiably destroyed for answers like that.”
