Simply 10 times Piers Morgan was brutally owned in 2019
It’s that time of year when everyone’s doing end of year retrospectives, but few will be quite so satisfying as a look back at those occasions when Piers Morgan was beautifully, satisfyingly, devastatingly owned (delete as appropriate).
Here are 10 of our favourites.
1. When Gary Lineker did this
Interesting to see Ian Chappell so outraged & offended by Aussies sledging Poms.
This is the same Ian Chappell who when I politely said hello to him in Melbourne, responded by calling me a ‘dickhead’. https://t.co/iPrtxsyddM— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) September 15, 2019
To be fair to him, that’s not sledging, that’s just an honest observation. https://t.co/tXFGLf2ycZ

2. When Adam Hills told him this on Good Morning Britain
‘I know you Piers, most of this is an act. There are one or two things going on – either you are a terrible odious human being or you’re pretending to be a terrible odious human being in order to be paid!’ – @adamhillscomedy on @piersmorgan 🙈 pic.twitter.com/9O7ynxq1zx

3. When actor Reese Dinsdale did this
Nigel Farage looking & sounding like a leader on #Marr. Love him or loathe him, at least he believes in what he says & argues it with passion. His popularity comes from his authenticity & his new surge is happening because democracy is being denied to those who voted for Brexit.

If you can’t tell the difference between ‘looking & sounding like a leader’ rather than faux indignation & empty bluster… then your opinion is worthless to me. https://t.co/8vnZyUxIKZ

This may explain why you haven’t had any lead roles for years. https://t.co/m7LhiGPlJB

Oh dear!
If you’d done your homework, you’d see that I’ve been directing television drama, one of which last year won an RTS Award, beating two other nominated programs in the category… your morning show being one of them. https://t.co/7KgOembVGR— Reece Dinsdale (@reece_dinsdale) 13 May 2019
4. When he retweeted this chap …
… and the great Nick Harvey did this.
5. When he mocked Nish Kumar
Oh dear… that awful moment for any comedian when they suddenly realise they’re not as funny as they think. Thoughts with @MrNishKumar at this difficult time. 🙏 https://t.co/cIdTKqtqAA
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 3, 2019
Yes and the experience of being so loudly disliked has given me a real insight into what your life must be like every day. Respect.

6. When he trolled Meghan Markle and his breakfast TV rival Dan Walker did this
Imagine being two staggeringly privileged royal multi-millionaires going to Africa to make a documentary that supposedly ‘shines a light’ on poverty, violence against women/girls & racial inequality – then in fact making it all about their own terrible struggle? I mean, FFS. pic.twitter.com/YCm9qAgzAd

Imagine being given a TV show & a newspaper column & using them both to pick on a woman who didn’t want to go out for a second drink with you 🤔 https://t.co/fPZ3Z5Rhth
— Dan Walker (@mrdanwalker) 21 October 2019
Imagine being the dullest, most excruciatingly virtue-signalling, tediously opinion-devoid, toe-curlingly snivelling sycophant on TV?
ps For the record, I never asked Meghan for a drink, she asked me. https://t.co/v0b1Be7rFR— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) 21 October 2019
Imagine losing the plot (and the argument) to the “dullest, most excruciatingly virtue-signalling, tediously opinion-devoid, toe-curlingly snivelling sycophant on TV”👍🏻😂#TearsForPiers https://t.co/AKiXcShwnw

7. When he tried to humiliate this Love Island contestant and this happened
Douche Piers Morgan tries to humiliate his guest and it backfires hilariously from r/instantkarma
8. When Richard Herring replied on behalf of this chap
Hi Jim, I understand your pain.
I’d feel bitter too if my surname was an anagram of Bellend. https://t.co/eyMGZPMEoc— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) 9 October 2019
Rather than being an anagram of Spermi Organ? https://t.co/0XDrvScr9I

9. When Vinnie Jones said this about him at the Oscars
‘Piers who?’
When @VinnieJones65 ran into Leo Dicaprio and tried to get him on GMB… 😂

10. When he was owned by a vegan sausage roll
Nobody was waiting for a vegan bloody sausage, you PC-ravaged clowns. https://t.co/QEiqG9qx2G
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) January 2, 2019
Oh hello Piers, we’ve been expecting you
— Greggs (@GreggsOfficial) 2 January 2019
While we’re here, remember when he experienced the ‘pain of childbirth’?
How painful is childbirth? @piersmorgan finds out the hard way! 😣
C’mon Piers! You can do it! #PushPiersPush pic.twitter.com/RnsZ2WXKAl
