However, some of her social media followers didn’t see the funny side of her post as one slammed she was ‘gloating’.

They said: ‘This ain’t it. This is some Boris Johnson gloating s***. You’re just a 1%er trying to make sells at the expensive of others. Hope you donate most of that to asylum seekers. You could literally save their life. This suckssssss I loved your music.’

As one of her fans defended her by stating: ‘you don’t understand satire do you?’, the critic continued: ‘she still has more money than a LOT us. Which is a LOT more she could be doing with it.

‘There is people starving to death her. We have people trying to have a safe place to live. We have a building that still is no sooner to be healed. She could be doing a LOT more. Not gloating s*** that could save life’s. But keep sticking up for people who really couldn’t care. Whatever.’ 

The media personality recently received backlash for declaring Boris Johnson was appointed as the UK’s Prime Minister due to the country’s ‘deep rooted racism and misogyny’ in last week’s General Election.

Earlier this month, the singer was believed to have deleted her Twitter account because of the voting controversy between the Conservative and Labour parties, but has since denied the claims.  


Outspoken: The musician received backlash for declaring the Conservative’s Boris Johnson (L last week) was appointed as the UK’s Prime Minister due to the country’s ‘deep rooted racism and misogyny’ (R: Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn last week)

She claimed the platform is used to ‘spread disinformation and lies’ after the Conservatives’ win, explained in an impassioned message on Instagram.

The singer has limited her social media presence following a furious tweet from Piers Morgan, who wrote: ‘I think I speak for Britain when I say if @lilyallen doesn’t like it here, why doesn’t she f*** off?’ 

In a series of posts on Instagram, the media personality shared her reasons behind deleting her account, insisting the platforms ‘have given a voice to the far right’. 

However, the musician – who publicly supported Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s campaign – admitted she was not ready to delete her Instagram account.

Not holding back: Presenter Piers Morgan hit out at Lily after she appeared to delete her social media account

Lily said: ‘It’s been reported that I deleted my Twitter because I couldn’t handle the abuse and humiliation that I got in the wake of my comments.

‘I deleted my Twitter because I really believe that these platforms have given a voice to the far right, and they use them to spread disinformation and lies, which will win them elections and ruin people’s lives. If they didn’t exist we wouldn’t be here. 

‘I want to delete my Instagram too but I am just not there yet. I so wish I was.’

Support: She also re-tweeted a string of posts slamming the overwhelming majority of voters who voted for Boris

Her Twitter page, @lilyallen, remains blank and displays a message which reads: ‘This account doesn’t exist’. 

After the results were announced on Friday, she posted an image of a sad face emoji, alongside the caption: ‘Some say it was Brexit, some day it was Jeremy [Corbyn], personally, and I know no one wants to hear it.

‘I think that racism and misogyny runs so so deep in this country and that Boris won because of his attitude towards those things and not in spite of them.’ [sic] 

She retweeted a post which read: ‘Vote for your kids to die with no healthcare and less brown ppl but the joke is capitalism needs cheap foreign workers to exploit so will NEVER reduce immigration so jokes on.’
