F**k Ant ‘N’ Dec – How do we shut them up?

FEARS FOR I’M A CELEBRITY PAIR AS PM FUMES

-

WHO will rid me of these troublesom­e Geordies..?

Insiders say that Boris Johnson channelled the medieval king Henry II as the I’m A Celeb duo openly mocked him for the second night running on the top- rated show.

I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly fired more shots at the government during Wednesday’s episode of the show.

Viewers couldn’t help but laugh after the presenters doubled down on their criticism of the Prime Minister Boris Johnson during the live segments.

Ant and Dec, both 46, joked about their mention in Prime Minister’s Questions and poked fun at the lack of inquiry into the No 10 Christmas party last year.

Ant said: “If we’ve learned one thing in the last 24 hours, you can’t cover something up.”

Dec continued: “No, that will come back to bite them at some point. Might take a year – but it will happen.”

He added: “Don’t worry, we’ll launch an inquiry on something – not that that’ll do anything.”

Earlier in the week Dec branded Mr Johnson “the Prime Minister, for now” during the jibe at the Government’s handling of claims a party was held in Downing Street despite lockdown measures last year.

Ant insisted the I’m a Celeb stars had not celebrated their change of camp leader with “cheese, wine and a secret Santa”.

The gang was even mentioned by Labour leader Keir Starmer at Prime Minister’s Questions.

A Number 10 insider said: “Boris is under great pressure at the moment and when he heard that Ant and Dec had been taking the piss again, he looked very dark indeed.

“He mentioned about ‘ who will rid me of this troublesom­e pair’. I think he was joking. For Ant and Dec’s sake I hope so.”
