Danny Dyer is wrong about Brexit

Oh so you all love Danny Dyer now? The turnaround in Dyer’s fortunes over the past 12 hours has been extraordinary. He’s gone from being the butt of posh tweeters’ jokes to a celebrated political sage. From a ridiculous uber-lad whose cosying up to football’s hard men and promiscuous use of words like ‘slags’ and ‘twats’ provoked laughter and/ or horror among the chattering classes, to the Twitterati’s favourite working-class person. What changed? He dissed Brexit. And if you diss Brexit, they love you.

The resurrection of Danny Dyer occurred on Good Evening Britain yesterday, a TV show for those gluttons for punishment who don’t quite get enough of Piers Morgan in the morning and need a further injection of his oafish self-righteousness at nighttime too. On a panel that also included Jeremy Corbyn, Ed Balls and Pamela Anderson — where are the nuclear codes when you need them? — Dyer had a pop at Brexit and at David Cameron, ‘THE TWAT’, for bringing Brexit about.
