There are few more controversial figures on Twitter than Piers Morgan and Joey Barton

Joey Barton and Piers Morgan regularly duke it out on Twitter, and it doesn’t take too much to get either of the lads going, but with the news that Piers Morgan had been ‘questioned under caution’ in relation to the phone hacking scandals breaking today, the QPR player was in fine form on his social media platforms.

It turns out that Morgan had been questioned by London police in connection with the scandal in December of 2013, but he issued a statement on Thursday evening through CNN, and Barton wasn’t about to let that go without any form of comment.

It’s a decent tip, to be fair.
