Love Island fans were left fuming this evening at the "worst timing" as Boris Johnson survived being "dumped" as prime minister just minutes into the launch.
The PM survived a vote of no confidence this evening despite a huge rebellion among his own MPs.
Tory MPs voted by 211 to 148 in the secret ballot in Westminster, Conservative 1922 Committee chairman Sir Graham Brady announced.
The news of his survival came minutes into the ITV2 show's launch, leaving fans fuming.
One tweeted: "Ffs not us trying to enjoy #LoveIsland and also finding out Boris is still PM where’s the surprise."
While another pleaded: "put Boris in the #LoveIsland so we can vote him out!."
A third declared: "Boris still there. So #LoveIsland escapism needed more than ever!"
"Please Love Island is on, I don’t want to hear anything about Boris Johnson Kmt #LoveIsland," another commented.
One wrote: "Wonder if Boris would get voted off the Villa #LoveIsland."
The ITV2 show's 2022 series is launched this evening, complete with a brand new set of sexy singletons hoping to find love.
Tonight's episode saw the Islanders meet for the first time - but a bombshell arrival sparked chaos on the show.
After each of the couples were coupled up - in pairings chosen for the first time by the public - new boy Davide made s his entrance.
The girls were shocked by the sudden entrance, with Indiyah saying: "When I saw him, I was very confused because I had no warning but he is very good looking!"
But the boys were less happy about the arrival, with Luca saying: “Davide! I was thinking I’m the good-looking Italian here and then you’ve sent that geezer through the door."
*Love Island airs tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2
