Lord Sugar reignites feud with Piers Morgan with strange crude tweet involving the Queen

Lord Sugar appeared to reignite his feud with Piers Morgan by responding to the former GMB host's tweet about being snubbed from the New Year's Honours list - with an incredibly strange tweet of his own.

The business magnate, 74, was knighted in the 2000 list "for services to the Home Computer and Electronics Industry" and was created a life peer as Baron Sugar in 2009.

With the announcement of the 2021 Honours list, Piers was clearly unhappy that he had not been included.

Reacting to the list, which included his former colleague Kate Garraway receiving an MBE after she documented husband Derek Draper's Covid struggle, Piers admitted that he was "very disappointed".

He wrote: "Very disappointed not to have made the honours list this year. After all I’ve done for this Govt, it’s baffling they haven’t rewarded me with at least a knighthood for services to holding miserably mediocre ministers to account.

"‘Sir Piers’ will have to wait."

Responding to Piers' tweet, Lord Sugar said that the knights are a "very elite circle of people" and that the Queen wouldn't be able to "tap him" with the sword because Piers' "head is so far up the clouds".

He went on to suggest that she "ram it where the sun does not shine" and helpfully pointed out a crude anagram of his name.

Lord Sugar tweeted: "Knight's are a very elite circle of people. The problem is your head is so far up in the clouds the queen would not be able to tap you with the sword, She maybe tempted to ram it where the sun does not shine. An anagram of Sir Piers Morgan is Orgasm Inspirer. [sic]"

His followers were left very confused, with one commenting: "Lord Sugar, there comes a point where tweeting someone in this manner becomes an unhealthy obsession. Perhaps, enjoy your success instead?"

While another questioned: "What are you blabbering on about Alan?"

A third wrote: "Another belter from big Al. Persistently churning out really weird tweets."
