Who will win the Christmas Number 1 race in 2020? The answer could be awkward\u2026 <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s just over a day to go before the UK Christmas Number 1 single is announced.

The race was disrupted by a late entry<\/a>, \u2018Boris Johnson is a Fucking Cunt\u2019 by The Kunts, which appeared on the 22nd<\/sup> and quickly rose to second place, where it threatened LadBaby\u2019s comedy charity single \u2018Don\u2019t Stop Me Eating\u2019. LadBaby are the reigning champions<\/a> \u2013 if they clinch the top spot again, it\u2019ll be three years in a row. Chasing them at number 3 was Liam Gallagher with his own charity single, the beautiful festive song<\/a> \u2018All You\u2019re Dreaming Of\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
