Hugh Grant’s Boris Johnson rant was made even better by the responses from the 4 Yorkshiremen
You can’t fail to have missed what Hugh Grant had to say about Boris Johnson proroguing parliament in the run-up to Brexit.
You will not fuck with my children’s future. You will not destroy the freedoms my grandfather fought two world wars to defend. Fuck off you over-promoted rubber bath toy. Britain is revolted by you and you little gang of masturbatory prefects. https://t.co/Oc0xwLI6dI

Which prompted lots of responses, not least this by Grant’s nemesis, Piers Morgan.
Oh shut up you virtue-signalling little twat. https://t.co/TfkPU4u3f2

But we’re not here for that, and thank goodness for that. We’re here because it also prompted this angry retort by someone who’s a bit less of a Remainer than Grant.
My next door neighbour in his nineties, lay in a field surrounded by dead and dying soldiers screaming in agony, it was hours before help came. He was shaking when he told me the story. He was 16 years old. He voted leave and wants to live long enough to see it happen.

Bloody luxury!!! My neighbour is 801 years old stabbed Genghis Khan with a bronze age axe head and would revel in the glory of a universal war!!!

(sigh) Right. My grandad, who witnessed the Big Bang, threw a rock at Lucifer as he fell as caught him square in his John Thomas, and he only wants to see reality collapse back into a singularity.

British Twitter arguments are so much more refined. I feel unworthy when reading them. Can’t you just resort to hate speech and name calling like those of us stateside?

And our thanks to Michael Harris for pointing it out.
Angry Hugh can only be improved on by the arrival of the Four Yorkshiremen. pic.twitter.com/uwXPIBNwpo
