| Hi, me and 2 friends have started a comedy writing group and are looking to write for comedians and radio panel shows. If anyone has any advice or contacts it would be much appreciated. |

Try your topical stuff out on Twitter. Use that as a tool to get seen. Don't worry about people passing off your jokes, it's topical, it has no shelf life.
From my admittedly very, very shallow experience, most comedians use other comedians on the circuit to write for them. Do you guys gig, or just write? |

You could try submitting to one of the established live topical sketch shows such as The Treason Show or Newsrevue
