Appoint the lettuce.

This wouldn't have happened if the Queen were still alive.

Lord Buckethead for PM!

Did she even move into Chequers?
 
2022-10-20 9:02:15 AM  
And nothing of value was lost.

This is 4.5 scaramuchis correct?
 
2022-10-20 9:03:09 AM  
Did she even have time to unpack?  Maybe she quit so soon, knowing the move out would be simpler.
 
2022-10-20 9:03:15 AM  
It's crazy to look at how conservatives (in both the US and UK) have a complete inability to run a government, yet keep getting farking elected.

I doubt she even had time to pick new wallpaper in Downing St.

Goodbye to bad rubbish.

So what scumbag will the Torries pick to lead them now?

Which is why Liz "done her in."

C'mon. "Lettuce Rejoice" was right there.

Someone worse.  With worse hair.

Her accomplishments include killing the queen (she met her right before she died, coincidence!?) and killing the british economy. I feel like there's a spy thriller buried in there somewhere, but it would work better as a comedy.
 
2022-10-20 9:04:00 AM  
The UK needs to romaine calm about this.
 
2022-10-20 9:04:01 AM  
Hahaha good riddance. But if the brits don't start demanding the Tory pricks call for an electron they absolutely deserve everything coming to them.

I look forward to the Nigel Farage government.
 
2022-10-20 9:04:24 AM  
See, this is why I like the UKs form of government better than ours. If she would have been elected President we would have to deal with her for four years no matter what she did wrong.

The premiership is such a poisoned chalice now that Jeremy Hunt, who at this point was probably the frontrunner to replace her, has already said he won't rum.

Larry the Cat for PM at this point...

/...after all, he already lives at Number Ten

She spent last weekend there.

I hope she was thoroughly miserable.

Never underestimate the power of stigginit.

Maybe the people will get sick of the Tories farking everything up ten ways from Sunday and let Labour have a go. It's not like they could possibly be any worse.
 
2022-10-20 9:05:33 AM  
How does this not result in a national election?

I don't follow UK politics too, too closely, but what's going on over there seems like an absoltue shiat show.
