Kunt and the Gang

In December 2020, Kunt, performing with his newly formed punk band, The Kunts, joined the race for the Christmas number one single again, with a short song about Prime Minister Boris Johnson called "Boris Johnson Is a Fucking Cunt". Its rivals in the 2020 race were "Don't Stop Me Eatin'" by LadBaby (a parody cover of "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey, which also featured Ronan Keating on some versions),[8][9] Russ Abbott's "Atmosphere",[10][11] former chart toppers Justin Bieber and The Lewisham & Greenwich NHS Choir (teaming up for a version of Bieber's "Holy"), Liam Gallagher's "All You’re Dreaming Of" and Ed Sheeran's "Afterglow".[12][11] The band were backed in the race by Black Mirror's Charlie Brooker,[13] as well as Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols[14] and like LadBaby, also released additional versions of the song, including a censored sausage roll based version.

The song about Boris Johnson was revealed on BBC Radio 1 by Vick Hope and Katie Thistleton on 20 December 2020.[15] During the show, the presenters did not mention the song's title or play it on air because of the offensive language in it, stating: "Now at 19 we've got a track about Boris Johnson that has so many bad words in it we can't play it on daytime Radio 1."[16] The record was a new entry at number 19, with LadBaby at number 1,[17] climbing to number 8 the next day.[18] On 23 December 2020, it was reported that a number of bookmakers had put odds on the record being the Christmas number one at 8/1, after it had become the second most downloaded song on iTunes and Amazon.[19][20][14] The song ultimately reached number 5 on the Christmas chart, after accumulating 45,119 sales,[21][22][23] and unlike many of the other Christmas campaign singles (such as rivals LadBaby) made the Official Audio Streaming Chart as well.[24]

In November 2021, the Kunts launched an online campaign to get their single "Boris Johnson Is STILL a Fucking Cunt" to Christmas number one. The song was released on December 17, 2021.[25] The song reached number 5 in the Christmas midweek chart.[26] During this campaign the band made numerous references to similarly subversive act The KLF, including in the music video (based, along with the song, on "Doctorin' the Tardis") and in promotional imagery, which shows Kunt and the band reading The Manual - a book written by The KLF as "The Timelords".[27] Similarly to their previous hit, The Kunts song for 2021 has several mixes, some of which feature other guest artists. Both songs have radio-friendly versions with no foul language, substituting the phrase “fucking cunt” for “sausage roll.” It is believed this is made in reference to LadBaby, who have had three previous number one Christmas singles based around sausage rolls. While the 2020 single had 23 different mixes, the release for 2021 has scaled this back to 13.[28] The song reached number 5 in the Christmas chart.[29]
