Partially a joke, but also a half-truth because I havent heard of him. The person in the screenshot is the USA vice president. Comparing him to a TV personality isn't equivalent at all.

I'm just going to assume that's a genuine question, not a joke. He's a media personality from Britain... he does a lot of political and social interviews and pseudo debates on his own TV program.
I'm not even sure what channel that program airs on, I always see clips on Youtube.

It's a double standards thread. Piers Morgan was caught in a double standard. I'm not comparing it to the first double standard posted, it's just another double standard that I thought I'd highlight.
I mean, the other ones are notable first time achievements. That just seems like they randomly appended it on for the sake of. Not really a double standard.
Why did you post the SadiqKhan one twice?
Because the J6 prosecutions were a massive overstep, and imprisoned many people who weren't violent, and were simply let in by police. And because Bidens DOJ overstepped in it's prosecution, Trump overstepped in his pardons. Dumb shit leads to dumb shit. She didn't have a great point. Just a cheap "gotcha" that seems won her some updoots by easily amused dipshits.
He’s a UK talking head, right wing grifter that likes to pretend he’s a centrist.
He used to be a hack journalist, until he became effectively unemployable by news outlets by hacking celebrities phones answering machines to get stories, and posting faked images of British soldiers torturing people during the second gulf war.
As a fun aside he also despises Prince harry and Megan, because Megan cut off contact with him after she started dating harry.
The fact he’s been inconsistent is the least surprising thing to find in this thread.
Couldn't get a third example for Muslims so re-used the first one again lol. Also Piers Morgan is a zionist, I thought they couldn't be antisemitic?
But yeah Morgan is a twat who often picks a stance that would generate the most ragebait, big Trump fan too. To be fair now I do agree with his logic behind this one:
Try making a valid point instead, you doorknob licking waste of time lmao
It's clearly a double standard, problem with Piers Morgan he does shit like this to cater to an audience that follows him.
Yeah I’m not Piers fan but that was pretty obvious just from using eyes and reading, something Step and Rewindz are thoroughly incapable of.
Point is going over their heads.
What point is there? There’s no double standard here
Yeah it actually annoyed me a bit to defend Morgan, he's a gutter journalist but it is what it is - there's a lot to criticise him for, so may as well be accurate with it.
Wears a point on their head.
makes it more amusing tbh.
…..very true.
