A song titled 'Boris Johnson is a F***ing C**t' by cult band The K**ts has become an unlikely contender for Christmas number one after entering the top 20 charts. The Essex punk band's track is currently top of Spotify's UK Viral 50 chart and second on Amazon Musics own list. It's competing with LadBaby, Youtubers Mark and Roxanne Hoyle, who are hoping to secure Christmas number one for the third year running - this time with their track Don't Stop Me Eating - their take on Journey's Don't Stop Believin'. Amazon, iTunes and Spotify currently have four versions of the song, which vary in length. Charlie Brooker hailed the song as a potential Christmas number one on Halloween, when Boris Johnson announced a month-long lockdown for England.
