Gary Neville destroys Tory MP with ruthless response after criticism over comments on nurses

Gary Neville brutally slapped down Conservative MP Lee Anderson after the pair were involved in a war of words on social media

It followed the former Manchester United star's comments on nurses pay during ITV's coverage of the World Cup final. Neville regularly airs his political views on Twitter and over the last month, he's been in Qatar working for several broadcasters, combining his appetite for football with his outspoken views regarding the World Cup hosts and their divisive attitudes and values.

During Sunday's finale, which was won by Argentina on penalties, Neville was keen to point out that football must take into account a country's attitude before allowing them to host major events. He then went on to recognise problems with the United Kingdom's leadership, citing ongoing strikes involving nurses and rail workers.
