Personal: Why Piers Morgan should be a Politician

Piers Morgan
Some one who has worked hard in his life but didn't come from the standard working class background.  We all know him?  Has a habit of saying something to cause a reaction, acts like he knows it all and can dish it but certainly can't take it.  There's a term for that right?  Troll.


I remember reading an article about the fact our Government was debating banning Trump, as a result of the public signing a petition.  He went on about the fact there are bigger fish to fry like the immigration crises.  Interestingly enough Piers Morgan does the same thing, goes on about Madonna, petty arguments or very miniscule topics when there are bigger problems going on.


Piers also will tweet, he will say that he does things to create discussions - even though they create provocative reactions (just like a troll).


He will criticise people for launching personal attacks (as shown by his tweets) then use terms like "Little Man" live on TV which is utterly cringe worthy and unprofessional.


Viewer Competition
I remember seeing how Gary Lineker tweeted that he had more viewers for his Leicester FC special.  Which it did, over a single episode it had more.  Piers responded with "Not in total of Trumps interview".  There was no mention of the fact that if 1 million people watch a show, if it's the same 1 million watching episode 2.  If there was a ratings reward that night, the interview with Trump wouldn't have won - no matter how sweet talking Piers used.


So looking at the top, Piers twists positive information to suit his own needs, says what he likes to create reactions and really cant take nothing on his chin.  Just like?  That's right - Politicians.


He should be a Politician
We all know Politicians, most of them have been raised by the same kind of families, same Schools and are all given jobs by family and friends.  They didn't earn their positions, they were given them as a result of their upbringing not qualifications.  As shown recently - it really is who you know - so you are taught how the system works e.g. tax systems.


I generally dislike Politicians, they constantly turn things, ignore the negatives and concentrate on the pros.  They argue like children often.  You tell them about their mistakes and they will not want to discuss that instead talk about the good.  This entire EU in/out argument is a prime example.  Telling the public anything to scare people in to voting.  Even though, the truth is - they don't know for certain what will happen.


Piers also constantly mentions his "family" members being military.  So what?  The respect is due to the family members not to Piers Morgan.


BGT
At each step of the way in his posts, Piers would twist, turn and argue back to suit his own petty arguments.  He over indulges in words to again suit him self.  His recent tweets about #BGT are a prime example.  The show wasn't great in the view of some people that I know but to claim people are "Dreadful" just because they may not be world beaters?  Is an understatement by far.  I also like how Piers states that the ratings were best when he was on the show.  Didn't Piers leave this show when it had not even finished yet?  So the best ratings of the series was actually not just Piers?


I remember watching this series 5, I loved watching the Hoff and McIntyre more than Piers Morgan.  Yet again we see Piers acting like it was thanks to him.  I actually wouldn't mind seeing Piers return next season.  I wouldn't watch that show any more than I am barely watching the current one.

It has little to do with the "talent" it's because we have seen it all before.  We've seen singers, pets, magicians and dangerous stunts.  It has nothing to do with the judges most of the time it's the acts and when they become boring.. why watch it.  Even Simon Cowells insults are old news, a bit like Piers Morgan will be soon enough.


So let's go again back to the posh Piers Morgan who's attitude is very disgusting and frankly appalling.  If he had to work like the rest of us, he wouldn't know what to do.  His attitude would have him fired instantly.  Then again, his career is built on that attitude.  Not hard work, but arrogance.  And there is a huge difference in arrogance to confidence, confidence is self belief and has nothing to do with others.  Arrogance is the belief you are better than others.  Piers Morgan certainly believes he is better than YOU.  I remember reading a part of his bio that his first job, he was told who to vote for.  A man so hell bent on his own opinion and doing what he wants?  was basically told what to do in his first job.  Any other real man would have voted how he wanted to regardless.  A man makes his own destiny and his own future, so perhaps Piers Morgan has naturally got some issues.


He falls out and insults anyone who doesn't agree with him, his ranting on twitter is a prime example.  Each time some one famous criticises him or what he says, he instantly launches in to a vicious attack and you can expect an article about .  Just like Politicians, he has completely lost touch with people.  Although he has a huge twitter fan base what he doesn't realise is, I follow him because I find them hilarious not because I like or agree with him.  I know 10 people on twitter and all of them follow Piers and only one of them thinks "he's okay".  That's 1 in 10.


Looking at almost 5 million followers, meaning only 500,000 out of 5 million actually think he's okay.  That's a very poor amount.  What's the old saying?  Quality not quantity?


You look at voters, we don't vote because we like politicians, we vote because we have to.  Otherwise we don't have a right to a voice according to the messages we are told.  Truth is if we don't vote, it would cause chaos.  We may even vote because of a single policy.  Goes to show people follow anyone on twitter for any reason.


Star Wars
I remember reading an article about Star Wars, he instantly had to search what dirt he had on the franchise.  From Alec Guiness him self, some one that didn't get Star Wars nor liked it.  What Piers Morgan failed to mention was the fact that not even George Lucas was happy with it, it had been edited more times than most films ever go through.  The critics wasn't impressed and generally everyone thought it was a waste of money.  It was plagued with a huge amount of problems, Lucas him self was starting to get poorly (again during Ep5) because he simply couldn't do everything that was needed.  The special effects had never been done before and the teams were coming up with new ideas to show simple things like explosions and camera angles.  He also went for untried actors, with Sir Alec and Harrison Ford being the only experienced actors in the movie.


Yet, when released from the very first scene it was captivating.  The very first title scroll had never been done before in such a way, with loud powerful music and straight on to a space chase which again seemed very real for the times.  Not only did it bring people back to the cinema's it also showed there was stories to tell.


Piers completely tore in to Star Wars and also admitted to never watching more than five minutes? Why did he react? Because Star Wars was hitting twitter and he didn't like it.  How can people even like the franchise that he didn't like or understand.


Piers uses "My huge twitter fan followers" to say how popular he is?  Look at how much the Star Wars franchise is worth.  Look at how many decades it has lasted and even in todays world young children who have Parents not even interested in Sci Fi making "light sabre" sounds and wishing they flying ships in space.  Young imagination - something many people even NASA scientists had when they were young.  It shows inspiration to look up instead of looking down on people.


So just like a Politician, Piers tries to understand the crowd.  He fails miserably in criticising a franchise he has never seen more than "10 minutes" worth.
It would also be interesting to know if he actually is a Sci Fi fan, I my self hate soap opera's I have seen plenty of episodes and I'm more qualified to have an opinion on those than he is on Star Wars.  To publicly rant and whine about them is quite entertaining.


Arsenal
Piers Arsenal moaning has been an incredibly predictable moment every single football weekend.  It's hilarious and in all honesty the main reason why I follow him.  It's an instant meltdown, not for his love for the club but instead because he shows how mentally childish he is.  I honestly believe Piers should manage Arsenal.  So we can see him struggle, so he can feel what it's like to be a manager in the Premiere League, the most competitive league in the world.  It's no longer two tier where you expect a team at the top to easily walk over a team at the bottom.  No longer are teams at the bottom full of average players, even league 1 doesn't have average footballers who just want to kick a ball around for a laugh.
He's made it clear he has not liked Wenger at all and now with Arsenal not winning a title for ten years his ranting carries on and doesn't stop.  Never mentioning the fact that for a majority of that ten year period Arsene had his hands tied and had to sell players.  He had to let go of talented footballers not because he wanted to but because he had to.  If a player doesn't get sold for a lot of money, they go on free transfer when they refuse to sign a new deal.  Is that Wenger's fault? No.  That's the owners of the club.  According to Piers though the buck always stops with the manager - wrong.  The manager is always a scape goat.  You look at Manchester United, they have bought so many players under LVG in two years.  Half of them have been a waste of money, the other half are doing well.  He was able to waste half that money which looks like it's not much of a problem, the board allowed it, LVG did it and guess what happened?  He has been sacked.  Wenger has had to make do with what he has and the thing is, most of Wengers purchases have actually worked.  You look at Arsenals signings in two years the ones that cost a good amount of money, they have been talented.  When was the last time Piers moaned about any of these new players?  I don't remember once.  He whines about the same two players constantly yet doesn't mention that Wenger pushed for the other players.


LVG has lost Champions League football, just managed the FA Cup and strangely enough not really thanks to the new signings but instead the youth team.  Did he make the choice to play them?  No.  He had no choice.  He had to.


Wenger every year improves Arsenal, he knows that a fully new team will not challenge anything.  The worst thing for Arsenal?  Finish outside top four, lost a manager, go through what most if not all clubs go through - a bigger nightmare.


Would Piers be quick to moan about Wenger if he never had the financial holding back in those ten years?  No.  Does he constantly play the wrong players in wrong positions? No.  Does Wenger need more players to win a title, Yes.  The thing is, Arsenal need two players - that is it.  They have a good defence, good attack and good midfield.  They simply only lack two men.  Will we see Arsene finally get those two men?  Most likely.


A part of me wishes Arsenal lost that top four, to see the melt down.  Piers blames Wenger, Wenger blames the fans, the fans blame everyone.


For years I have heard all sorts of things from Arsenal fans.  They accuse Wenger of being deluded in thinking they can win the title.  Even though Arsenal fans are just the same.  I know a lot of Arsenal fans and I can say, they want Wenger in/out depending on results.  They blame the ref, injuries and the players.  The players they blame then become players they missed when they are injured.  At Christmas if Arsenal are top of the league its "we will win the league, we are top of the league" yet they blame Wenger for not being down to earth?  Arsenal fans are becoming more and more hated by rival fans than United fans - which says it all.


I had a Wolves fan once, he's retirement age and told me.  "One type of fan, Arsenal fans.  Never their fault, always the victims".  And he is spot on.  Long time ago i knew a few Arsenal fans, they whined about injuries too.


Wenger is a world class manager and any fan would take him tomorrow.  He may not be winning titles all the time but that's the Premier League - get over it.




Piers Morgan will be forgotten
It's quite sad that a man at his age, enough to be a granddad and respectable has to resort to constant tantrums.  Something from the Inbetweeners, including all the "banter" and insults.  I would love to meet Piers Morgan, spend plenty of time with him to see if he really is this person or he just acts like it to gain the reactions.  I did mention before about him being a troll, something he accuses others of being.  I get the bad feeling that Piers Morgan is actually this person, as shown by his live TV presenting.  He doesn't realise that people don't watch him because they love him, they watch him because they find him hilarious and not in a comedian kind of way either.  One day, he will pass away and on that day we all know what will get tweeted, we all know the reaction.


The pathetic thing is, no one will remember Piers Morgan after 12 months from his death.  Those who remember him, will be the same amount that remember me.  Families, friends and generally those who spend a lot of time with me because of who I am not because of my wealth and power.  If Piers Morgan was a normal person, no money, no power - he wouldn't be the friend people wanted around.  He'd be that guy that invited him self to the party.  I feel pity for Piers Morgan, he wont be remembered for doing anything special for our Country.  He won't get a an honour status among the people.  He will simply be dust in the wind.  Perhaps that's why Piers reacts the way that he does, he knows in his heart that he would surely become yesterday's news.


I really do pity him.




What did I say about hypocrisy?  Piers Morgan has just told Johnny Depp to act his age.
Act your age
