Green MSP Ross Greer in Twitter spat with Piers Morgan
The MSP for West of Scotland has found himself involved in personal jabs with famously controversial character Piers Morgan.
Ross Greer, Scotland’s youngest MSP, branded the Good Morning Britain presenter a ‘Honey-glazed gammon’ after an online feud began:

The clash began after, 24 year-old, Mr Greer called Winston Churchill a ‘white supremicist mass murderer’ on the anniversary of the former Prime Minister’s death:
Once again for the people in the back:
Churchill ? was ? a ? white ? supremacist ? mass ? murderer ? https://t.co/wlOhhnJEms

Morgan jumped to the defense of the war time leader by calling Mr Greer a ‘thick ginger turd’:
And you’re a thick ginger turd who’d be spewing this filth in German if it wasn’t for Churchill. https://t.co/8hq8wpQn00

The MSP for the West of Scotland defended his comments with reference comments on the acts of genocide committed in India during Churchill’s premier.
2,500 replies and counting. Most of those having a tantrum just don’t know history but there’s a strong current of ‘Three million Indians dying slow & hideous deaths was a price worth paying’.
To deal with its murdrous history, Britain needs to start by learning it. https://t.co/nYQPnUNNBN
