Politics Andrew Pierce GB News
A Brexit-supporting GB News presenter complained about having to queue at the airport, and the irony wasn’t lost on anyone else
Andrew Pierce – GB News presenter, Daily Mail contributor, and arch Brexiter – has been something of a frequent flyer at the Poke, and not in a good way.
Past encounters with Pierce have included –
The time he told people with mental health problems to get a grip.

He said Boris Johnson was the least racist person n the Conservative Party.
Boris Johnson is “probably the least likely person to be a Tory to be racist”
…says Andrew Pierce, in a glowing endorsement of the rank & file of the Conservative Party.

On Sunday, he took aim and fired straight into his Brexit-loving foot, with this complaint about his experience at Madrid Airport.

The problem at Madrid had been partly caused by some new tech.
so much for the new kiosks @ Madrid
instead we waited 1.5 hours in line for an immigration official https://t.co/z28JvLkDXz pic.twitter.com/0emoV9oWYI— Annalisa Fernandez (@BecauseCulture) February 15, 2026
But the fact that Pierce couldn’t join the fast queues with people from the EU defintely won’t have helped – and we all know who’s to blame for that.

You wanted out of Europe and voted for Brexit which creates longer airport queues for passport stamping.
Just saying… https://t.co/8AfNSA9u4O

I assume this is a joke? Brexit has made travelling in Europe so much more difficult. Yet you were a great fan boy of it as I recall?

You created this chaos. Campaigned for it and voted for it. And now, guess what? It's everybody else's fault. Foolish and deluded doesn't even begin to cover it.

The epitome of a Brexit/Reform voter. Literally vote for something, help facilitate it, moan like fuck about it. Then blame others https://t.co/xG9UUsWFd2

You’ve got exactly what you voted for – third country status. Don’t complain you’re being treated just like an American, an Australian, a Russian, a Mexican. Repent at leisure as you face worse queues this summer🤣 https://t.co/RwCuGTPghu

It’s extraordinary to watch Brexit’s architects complain about Brexit reality.
This is getting your country back –
Being able to moan about queues you insisted upon. https://t.co/jE5odp7D22— Liz Webster (@LizWebsterSBF) February 15, 2026
People wondered if his wait time was all that bad, by current standards.
Almost all EU airports advise that you arrive at least 2 hours before departure time.
Whinyboy gained 10 minutes!
What is he whining about again?@toryboypierce— Toptap1 (@Toptap_one) February 15, 2026
Such a snowflake.
