Love Island fans in hysterics as show makes ‘savage’ dig at Boris Johnson
LOVE Island viewers were gobsmacked when voiceover guy Iain Stirling threw shade at Prime Minister Boris Johnson on the day he resigned.
The savage dig at the outgoing PM comes on high day of drama in British politics and in the Love Island villa during the Casa Amor recoupling ceremony.
The defeated PM today told the nation he is quitting and clearing the stage for a new Tory leader by the autumn in a statement outside 10 Downing Street.
On July 5, 2022, an onslaught of resignations began to hit Downing Street – lasting two days until Johnson agreed to leave his position.
Over 50 Conservatives handed in their notice, including cabinet ministers, after the Chris Pincher scandal broke.
Johnson announced that Pincher would keep his position as MP despite accusations against him which angered many other members of the Conservative Party.
Concerns came as Johnson did not appear to be willing to leave in the first 24hours of walk outs, instead he looked to shuffle the cabinet.
It was a fact Iain couldn’t help but poke fun just a minute into tonight’s highly anticipated episode.

“If you’re time’s up, just walk out the door, don’t hang around if no one wants you to stay,” Iain started.
“Advice that’s also helpful if you live at 10 Downing Street.”
Viewers watching at home found the savage dig hysterical and relished in the moment.
“Not ian already skating boris not even 1 minute in,” enjoyed one fan on Twitter.
Another added: “Yes to ian shading boris on.”
And a third wrote: “Boris catching strays on LOVE ISLAND looool.”
Other fans pointed out the high day of drama in the UK, as they reeled from all the excitement.
One viewer commented: “My GP advised me to stay stress-free and calm for my post COVID recovery, but neither of us expected Boris resigning and Casa Amor recoupling to take place on the same day tbf.”
Another added: “First Boris resigned then the Casa amour recoupling. Glorious.”
And a third wrote: “Boris Johnson resigning and Love Island recoupling on the same day? that’s a national holiday in my books.”
