The actor has shared his furious thoughts over the PM's decision to suspend parliament
Hugh Grant has called Boris Johnson an "over-promoted rubber bath toy" in a scathing tweet which has since gone viral. The actor shared the post following news that the PM had decided to suspend parliament - a move that many have branded undemocratic.
"You will not fuck with my children’s future," wrote Grant. "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."
At the time of writing, the tweet had been retweeted more than 65,000 times, and liked by a further 267,000 users, before becoming a trending topic on the social media platform. Many shared their appreciation for his words, with some referencing Grant's performance as Prime Minister in Richard Curtos' Love Actually.
Johnson has sparked huge criticism among MPs and the public after ordering parliament to be prorogued from the second week in September until 14 October – just 17 days before the scheduled date of Brexit on Halloween.
Opposers of a no-deal Brexit have accused the PM of trying to push his proposed deal through without too much intervention. House of Commons speaker John Bercow denounced the suspension of sittings as a “constitutional outrage”.
