Piers Morgan risks backlash with provoking post after England's latest Euro 2024 win
Piers Morgan was in a jubilant mood after England's Euro 2024 quarter-final win over Switzerland, but his decision to celebrate in a Scottish pub didn't go down well with locals
Piers Morgan was absolutely ecstatic as England clinched their spot in the Euro 2024 semi-finals, triumphing over Switzerland in a heart-stopping penalty shootout.
The outspoken TV personality didn't waste a moment to revel in Gareth Southgate's squad's thrilling victory, although not everyone around him seemed to share his high spirits.
The former Good Morning Britain presenter, 59, took to Instagram to express his joy - and cheekily stir up some Scottish locals. Piers chose the renowned Jigger Inn, an iconic Scottish pub, to watch England's latest victory.
Beaming with pride and gesturing towards the Jigger Inn sign, Piers captioned his Instagram post: "No better place to celebrate England's win than in Scotland's most iconic pub."
"The locals weren't quite as happy as me."

Another chimed in: "Mate, you'll not be allowed back with that attitude!"
Some even challenged his national loyalty, with queries like: "Thought you were Irish?"
