Satirical punk band The Kunts are in the running for a Christmas Number 1 in the UK with their track ‘Boris Johnson Is A Fucking Cunt’.
Check out the track here:
The track was originally released by the band as part of their July album ‘Kunts Punk In Your Face’, but the song has received a new boost in the charts likely in response to the governments last minute decision to scrap the relaxed Covid rules over the Christmas period.
Charlie Brooker, Black Mirror creator, has already backed the song noting that it had reached number 2 in the ITunes UK song chart.
