Lee Hurst isn’t the first former celebrity to declare his distaste for mask wearing, nor is this his first declaration, but his boast about flouting coronavirus rules got a lot more attention than he’s used to these days.
Here’s what he claims to have done.
It didn’t help that his confession included an admission to being horrible to a security guard who was just doing their job.
Of course, we don’t know whether it really happened, but the takedowns certainly did.

Imagine finding the simple task of wearing a mask to help save lives so intolerable a burden that it makes you such a reckless, selfish pr*ck?
Then imagine BOASTING about it? Just pathetic. https://t.co/3y46lB2RmA— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) October 25, 2020

Lee Hurst and his ilk taking to twitter to announce they haven’t worn a mask like a child who has announced they have done a shit in the ‘big toilet’ is embarrassingly, desperate

Lee Hurst tweeting in 1940 –
“AIR RAID WARDEN: Please switch your lights off
ME: No (CONTINUES TO MAKE STREET A TARGET FOR THE LUFTWAFFE)
I am starting to lose my patience. You can only remain polite for so long under this nonsense”

Golden rule: you can always tell the calibre of person by how they treat retail and service workers.
If this even happened, then it's indicative of his personal conduct. https://t.co/lKrA9AwZqW

God, imagine the thrill of being 90s comedian Lee Hurst, defiantly stomping through Morrisons to pick up a Rustlers burger and 2 litres of Tizer, your once-famous face proudly unconstrained by the mask the so-called 'security guard' wants you to wear pic.twitter.com/klJ6Ml7t8V

You really owned that minimum wage person just doing their job https://t.co/R7cygqFOnl

Lee, get your ears tested. He was asking if you had a mask not whether you had a career. https://t.co/X94HigISjz

Lee Hurst was on a comedic-spin-on-sport panel show decades ago, despite being neither athletic nor funny. Now he does a shop at Morrison’s and tweets like he’s just singlehandedly saved the statue of an infamous slave trader.

As if those devastating burns weren’t enough, RussInCheshire, who curates the #WeekInTory round-up of Conservative cock-ups, had this brief engagement with Hurst, and you can see for yourselves which of them won the battle of wits, and which arrived unarmed.
