The verbal vitriol between Piers Morgan and far-right activist Tommy Robinson has intensified, stemming from the former's recent interview with Tucker Carlson. For context, Piers Morgan recently gave an interview to Carlson during his visit to England. In the November 26 episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, the two media personalities discussed ongoing issues in England.

In the podcast, Carlson and Morgan debated the influence of immigration on English culture. The American podcaster asked Piers Morgan what, in his view, had changed positively with immigration. The British broadcaster said that the food in England improved as people from other cultures migrated to the country. Morgan also stated that he loves living in a multicultural society

For his remarks, Morgan came under scrutiny from many anti-immigration activists, including Tommy Robinson, who targeted the English media personality in his X posts following the interview.

On November 28, Robinson posted a clip in which students of a different religion were inviting people to visit Edullect Academy's open day. Commenting on the clip, he wrote:

"Is this the future you want for your children?"

Hours later, Piers Morgan responded to Tommy Robinson's post, slamming him for allegedly encouraging "hate."

"Convicted thug and fraudster encourages hate on innocent young schoolchildren because of their skin colour. Repulsive," Morgan commented.

In May this year, Robinson was released from prison. Per the BBC, the far-right activist was arrested in October last year for breaching a court injunction. The injunction was issued to prevent him from repeating false allegations against a Syrian refugee.

Soon after the release of the aforementioned interview, Tommy Robinson started bashing Piers Morgan and Tucker Carlson in his X posts. Robinson also reshared many tweets criticizing Morgan for his support of multiculturalism. In one of his posts, while calling out the English broadcaster for his stance, Robinson wrote:

"The vile mug @piersmorgan who framed our soldiers and hacked a dead kids' phone, may think I'm a "little sh*t" because I expose the r*pe jihad of Britain's children. He thinks their r*pe, torture, even murder is permissible because "muh curry". Call me what you like, I'll fight for the nation's children and future until my last breath."

Morgan responded to the far-right activist's accusations and asked him to remove the "defamatory" post. He further invited Robinson to his show for a debate.

"Hi Bottle-Job, I didn’t hack a dead girl’s phone, that was another newspaper, so delete this defamatory lie or you’ll be back in court again. Oh, and when you grow a pair, come on Uncensored and we can discuss everything properly," he responded.

In another post, Robinson shared an AI-generated picture featuring Piers Morgan eating curry with a blazing building in the background. While sharing this image, he wrote:

"We won't be replaced by the third world just so you can eat out, you fat mess @piersmorgan"

Morgan clapped back at this post and responded by calling him a "coward" for not joining him on his show.

"You’re such a Billy Big Balls on here - but still don’t have the balls to come on my show. Why are you such a coward?" Morgan retorted.

The British broadcaster not only issued a rebuttal to Robinson's commentary but also responded to the criticism of others. Earlier on November 27, while replying to a critic, Piers Morgan wrote that he would trade a "lot of white English people" for "chicken tikka masala."
