When Cellino hired Hockaday you were silent – Leeds fans react hilariously as Labour MP slams Radz

Dave is a huge Leeds fan and ardent disciple of Bielsa ball. A career in print magazines that included editing PC Zone, launching PokerPlayer and redesigning The Big Issue has finally led Dave to writing about the love of his life, Leeds United. It’s been a tough 2020 but the single scariest moment was the first quarter of the game against Man City. Rodrigo will be the saviour this season.

The Leeds summer tour to Myanmar has caused a huge amount of controversy, among fans, but in the wider political world as well.

Amnesty International issued a press release and a Labour MP, Dr Rosena Allin-Khan wrote a letter to Andrea Radrizzani expressing her disappointment.

Prefacing the letter, she said: "No club or organisation should promote a country which carries out state sponsored mass murder. They must rethink it, history will judge them to be on the wrong side of this."

She sent the letter on her official Twitter account on Tuesday.

I’ve written to @LUFC expressing my anger at their decision to hold a post-season tour in Myanmar.

Strong words and a lot of the sentiment echoed what the majority of the fans had been saying all day.

However, some Leeds fans didn't take kindly to a Labour MP getting involved, scoring political points from a sporting occasion.

And they let her know with some brilliantly funny tweets back.

Here are the funniest reactions to the letter:

Can u also write a letter to him asking to invest heavily on quality players next season.

Good point. However i believe if we play 2 up top, we have a great chance of two wins from two. You just have to be positive #lufc
