But the Tories are being somewhat mocked for a hashtag being used on Twitter - with many saying it's ruining Christmas. While the original scene featured romantic messages for Keira Knightley's character and went down in cinema history, the Prime Minister's version received a mixed reaction. Hugh Grant, one of the stars of the 2003 hit movie, has also pointed out the glaring omission from Johnson's Love Actually general election rip-off. In the original scene from the romantic comedy, Lincoln's character appeared opposite Keira Knightley's character to profess his love to her. "Enough, let's get this done," Mr Johnson says at the end of the parody clip, directly referencing the original scene once more while walking away from the woman's house.
