Joe Lycett has raised more than £50,000 for a homelessness charity in response to Suella Braverman's comments about rough sleeping - and sent a message to the home secretary.
The 35-year-old comedian told his 1.4 million Instagram followers he wanted to support the charity Crisis after Mrs Braverman branded the use of tents by the homeless "a lifestyle choice".
Uploading a stock image of potpourri, Lycett, who has been a vocal critic of the home secretary in the past, said: "My old friend Suella Braverman has described rough sleeping as a 'lifestyle choice'.
"I always thought lifestyle choices were things such as cargo pants, fishing and decorating your bathroom with a bowl of potpourri.
"I want to see if this image I found on Google, described as 'wooden botanical fragrant potpourri bowl with lemon', can raise £50,000 for homelessness charity Crisis UK."

And it continues
BBC News - No 10 disowns Suella Braverman article attacking police over protests https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-67368785
Home Secretary Suella Braverman is facing questions about her future after defying Downing Street over an article accusing the police of bias.
She claimed aggressive right-wing protesters were "rightly met with a stern response", while "pro-Palestinian mobs" were "largely ignored".
The article was not cleared by Downing Street and suggested changes to the text were not followed, No 10 said.
Some Tories have called for the home secretary to be sacked.
It comes ahead of a Pro-Palestinian march for a ceasefire in Gaza, which is due to take place in central London on Saturday.

Well Ms Braverman's article was certainly a rabble-rouser
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67390514
The Met Police has condemned "extreme violence from right-wing protesters" who it says set out to confront Saturday's pro-Palestinian march.
Nine officers were injured and 145 people arrested - the "vast majority" of whom were counter-protesters."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
