Conservative fans of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson are disappointed after he backtracked on a playful reference to the newly-appointed conservative British Prime Minister, with fans saying that the wrestling and movie star had caved to pressure from a left-wing Twitter mob.

In a typically exuberant interview, The Rock had been playfully riffing on the fact that he shares a surname with the incoming British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, known for his iconic mop of blonde hair.
