A TOPLESS glockenspiel player has today driven TV viewers mad during the coverage of Boris Johnson’s reshuffle.
The musician, wearing just a pair a shorts, played the instrument for hours outside Parliament today.
Television crews had gathered to cover the new Prime Minister’s reshuffle but viewers could only hear the tunes being played by the mystery man.
Furious viewers took to Twitter to voice their anger with one writing: “For the love of God someone snap the glockenspiel player’s mallets!!”
During Sky News’ coverage, he played renditions and theme tunes of The Wombles, Mr Men, Rupert Bear, Vision On, Super Mario, Beverley Hills Cop and The Exorcist.
TAKING REQUESTS?
One person asked whether he was “taking requests” while others said they were “enjoying” his tunes.
Twitter user Lord Beestonia wrote: “Right, I'm crowdfunding to get down to London, walk over to College Green and snapping that glockenspiel player's stick over my knee.
“And pushing its owner into a puddle.”
Tom Sharp added: “Is anyone else getting p****d off with the glockenspiel ‘player’ outside Parliament. Really irritating now.”
Is anyone else getting p****d off with the glockenspiel ‘player’ outside Parliament. Really irritating now.
Twitter user Shaun W wrote: “Will that glockenspiel player on Sky News just please “shut the f*** up”… thank you.”
But Peta Morton jumped to his defence and wrote: “Who is the genius glockenspiel player playing Rupert the Bear? Thanks for the giggle!”
His performance was being played to the nation as Mr Johnson made Sajid Javid Chancellor and Priti Patel Home Secretary in his reshuffle.
DRAMATIC RESHUFFLE
After a dramatic day in Westminster Mr Javid became Britain's first ethnic minority number two in Government and close ally Dominic Raab was appointed Boris' Foreign Secretary and deputy PM.
Boris made the bold move of making Michael Gove, his fellow leadership rival, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, showing he's forgiven him for reportedly knifing him in the back in the 2016 race.
Just hours after he became Britain's 55th Prime Minister this afternoon with a promise to deliver Brexit in 99 days, more than a dozen were booted in a shock reshuffle.
He stamped his authority with a brand new top team filled with jobs for his allies from Vote Leave.
His rival Jeremy Hunt was the most high profile to get the sack – after he was offered a job as Defence Secretary but turned it down.
Almost all of those who were axed were backers of Hr Hunt, showing the new PM is keen to ditch those who gunned for his opponent or were part of May's team who failed to deliver Brexit.
The massive shake-up has sparked frenzied speculation Mr Johnson is laying the ground for a snap General Election within months.
