In what is just the most recent instance of a reality tv ‘personality’ appearing to nail their hard-right colours to the wall, Sharon Osbourne has declared she will be attending an anti-immigration march organised by Tommy Robinson.

The response has been just as polarised as you’d expect – but there was one reaction that I would have loved to be able to witness firsthand that of Belfast rappers Kneecap, who must feel vindicated after their spat with Osbourne last year.

Because Osbourne’s attendance at Robinson’s march will prove that she’s despicable, and that Kneecap were right about her all along.

In the wake of their 2025 Coachella appearance, which ended with images including ‘F*** Israel’ and ‘Free Palestine’, Osbourne publicly called for the Belfast rap-group’s visas to be revoked, claiming their performance included ‘projections of anti-Israel messages and hate speech’.

Metro dunking on Osbourne and defending Kneecap wasn't on my 2026 bingo card.
