On 25 February 2016, Izzard announced his intention to stand for the National Executive Committee of the Labour Party. In 2011, Izzard revealed that he had political ambitions and wanted to become an MP, Mayor, or MEP by 2020. Izzard appeared in literature to support changing the British electoral system from first-past-the-post to alternative vote for electing Members of Parliament to the House of Commons in the Alternative Vote referendum in 2011 and is a supporter of the Labour Campaign for Electoral Reform (LCER). He donated nearly £10,000 to the party in 2008, appeared again on a party political broadcast for the 2009 European election, and again in a 2010 election video entitled Brilliant Britain. He appeared in a party political broadcast for the Labour Party in the run-up to the 2005 general election. In 1998, Izzard was named on a list of the biggest private financial donors to the Labour Party. He has said that he knew he was a transgender person at the age of four, after watching another boy being forced to wear a dress by his sisters, and that knew at the age of seven that he wanted to be an actor. Following his mother's death, Izzard attended St John's School in Porthcawl, Mid Glamorgan, St Bede's Prep School and Eastbourne College. He and his brother built a model railway to occupy their time while their mother was ill (it was donated to Bexhill Museum in 2016). Izzard's mother died of cancer when Izzard was six and his brother, Mark, was eight. The family then moved to Wales, where they lived in Skewen, West Glamorgan. When Izzard was one year old, the family moved to Northern Ireland, settling in Bangor, County Down, where they lived until Izzard was five. His mother was a midwife and nurse his father was an accountant who was working in Aden with British Petroleum at the time of Izzard's birth. His family name is of French Huguenot origin.

Although this is probably Izzard's most conventional stand-up comedy set, fans of later, better-known routines like Dress to Kill will appreciate Unrepeatable, not least because the early roots of that album's central routines about Izzard's transvestism can be found in this set's 'Bloke in a Dress.' This CD is also available as a DVD with audio commentary and other extras. Izzard quickly moves away from the standard observational humor into his own mildly surreal worldview, starting with a piece about Prince Charles' then-current problems with hecklers and moving on to the political and historical pieces that have since become the mainstay of his act. In fact, the opening ten-minute riff on the travails of laundry day, 'Are You Happy With Your Wash?,' might as well be by a British-accented Jerry Seinfeld. until Anti-Records released the comedian's back catalog in 2004, Unrepeatable is one of Izzard's more traditional sets of material. Originally available on CD in Eddie Izzard's native U.K.
