Piers criticised Lily’s response to Laurence and branded her “insufferably irritating”.
He hit back in his Event column for The Mail On Sunday: “After Laurence Fox’s hilariously anti-woke performance on Question Time tonight, the insufferably irritating Lily Allen blasted on Instagram: ‘Sick to death of luvvies like Fox going on TV and forcing their opinions on everybody else. Stick to acting, mate, instead of ranting about things you don’t know anything about’.”
The journalist went on to accuse Lily of being hypocritical, as she is often known to be outspoken with her views.
He jokingly added: “It’s very early to be announcing winners for my coveted Morgan Awards for 2020, but I think I can say with some degree of certainty that nobody will beat Ms Allen to the Pot Kettle Award for Laughable Lack of Self-Awareness. Congrats, Lily!”
