Hugh Grant Drags Boris Johnson's Cringey Parody Of 'Love Actually' Notecard Scene For Its Glaring Omission

The United Kingdom is holding a general election on Thursday, December 12, during which both Jeremy Corbin's Labour Party and Boris Johnson's Coservatives hope to win a majority and control the future of Brexit.

The two parties are going to great lengths to make their cases to U.K. voters.


Boris Johnson (whose political brand often includes outlandish stunts and/or xenophobic rhetoric) even went so far as to produce a parody of a famous scene from the movie Love Actually.

No one could deny the parody was well produced, but Hugh Grant, one of the actual stars of Love Actually, didn't care for Johnson's interpretation.

He pointed out there was one card Johnson had failed to recreate...

It seemed appropriate that Johnson, who began his political career writing often misleading or false stories about the European Union, couldn't hold up the card that said "at Christmas you tell the truth."

Twitter users offered up a little truth in the missing card's place.


Many felt they knew what would happen in Boris tried to hold a card of truth.

One thing's clear: Hugh Grant REALLY doesn't like Boris Johnson and the Tories.


While Boris's video encourages people to hold their nose and just "get it done," he conveniently fails to mention the many horrible things his Brexit would entail.



It was also quickly revealed that Johnson's Love Actually parody was created just after another was premiered by a Labour campaigner.


This isn't the only time Hugh Grant has put himself out there to defeat the Conservative Party. He recently went on a door-knocking spree, speaking with strangers about why they should vote Labour or Liberal Democrat.



We won't know whether Boris's video was successful until Thursday, December 12, when the U.K.'s general elections will either create a unified government or leave the nations with yet another hung parliament.

The film Love Actually is available here.

We're Pretty Sure We Now Know Why FIFA Gave Trump A 'Peace Prize'—And Yep, That Tracks

After President Donald Trump was presented with FIFA's inaugural “FIFA Peace Prize,” a gold medal and oversized trophy that, notably, arrived just months after he failed to secure a Nobel Peace Prize, the U.S. Justice Department suddenly announced that it was dropping an international soccer bribery case—to the surprise of no one.

During the ceremony, FIFA President Gianni Infantino heaped praise on Trump, saying the honor recognized his "exceptional and extraordinary actions to promote peace and unity around the world.”

Trump Official Tries To Claim Antifa Is Top National 'Threat'—Then Flails Over Simple Questions

Michael Glasheen, the operations director of the National Security Branch, was criticized after he told members of Congress that Antifa is "the most immediate violent threat" to the U.S. and could not answer simple questions to justify his claim.

Antifa is a loose network of anti-fascist activists with no central structure, no funding, no membership roster, and no offices or leadership hierarchy for prosecutors to target. Despite this, President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order declaring it a "domestic terror organization," a move that's been celebrated by his supporters.

Gwen Stefani Called Out After Promoting An Anti-Abortion 'Catholic Prayer' App On Instagram

As the lead singer of '90s ska band No Doubt, Gwen Stefani positioned herself as an empowered woman speaking out about the double standards and unfair societal expectations women and girls face with songs like the feminist anthem "I'm Just A Girl" and more subtly in "Spiderwebs" and "Sunday Morning."

Her solo work like "What You Waiting For?" continued themes of frustration, identity, and breaking female stereotypes.

Viral Video Of Lauren Boebert Arguing With Bouncer At George Santos' Holiday Party Is All Kinds Of Cringe

Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert was widely mocked after she was caught on video trying to get her congressional aides into a holiday party hosted by disgraced former New York Republican Representative George Santos in Washington, D.C., after the bouncer denied them entry.

Santos' political career was derailed by allegations of fabricating his background, misusing campaign funds for luxury items and Botox, and leaving a trail of victims behind him as a known fraud and identity thief. He has been soaking up attention since President Donald Trump commuted his prison sentence a couple of months ago.

Amanda Seyfried Refuses To Back Down After Calling Charlie Kirk 'Hateful': 'I'm Not F—king Apologizing'

Actor Amanda Seyfried said she has no plans to apologize after calling the assassinated far-right activist Charlie Kirk "hateful," telling Who What Wear that she merely "said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes."

Kirk was assassinated in September while speaking at a university in Utah; the suspect was caught after a two-day manhunt and has since been charged. The Trump administration has used Kirk's murder as an opportunity to crack down on free speech and to target leftists even though the shooter is aligned with the far-right.
