Jeff Goldblum probably knows what this is like…
Liberal MP Dave Sharma appeared to tell SKY News today “…the death of Boy George was a shocking and sickening act…”
It’s possible he also said Lloyd George, a former British PM.
But it definitely wasn’t George Floyd, who was the man being discussed in relation to US riots.
SKY News is understood to have not corrected him.
Both Sharma & Boy George are now trending….

SKY News has responded.
The headline shown in this video and others widely circulated on Twitter today has been doctored. This was never published on https://t.co/sH6vLEkGpb. Dave Sharma also did not say 'Boy George' in his earlier interview, he mistakingly reversed George Floyd's first and last names. https://t.co/FNfXXw9jJU

And so has Boy George.
He said Boy are you deaf? https://t.co/eD0DFcQjge
