Ian took to Twitter to post the message: “NO LOCKDOWN NO TESTS NO TRACKS NO MASKS NO VAX #researchanddestroy” After a public backlash he followed the post up today with the comment: “ So im a Conspiracy Theorist HA! a term invented by the lame stream media to discredit those who can smell and see through the government/media lies and propaganda #researchanddestroy”
BBC star Greg, who recently urged people to stay at home to protect themselves during Covid in a video featuring his character of Scotland’s best loved Squaddie Gary, decided Ian needed a talking to and confronted him on Twitter.
He wrote: “The influence you have, and this is how you choose to use it? Shameful- not an artist, a puppet.“
One of Ian’s fans came to his defense and said: “Opinions are like a***holes we’ve all got one don’t judge someone’s right to express theirs.”
Greg then replied: “To express their a***hole? You’re genuinely encouraging people to express their arsehole? Fair enough. I suppose it does have a kind of voice....”
