Simply 21 tweets that totally nail the state the UK is in right now

So instead enjoy these 23 tweets that totally nail the state we’re in right now after another week of unprecedented chaos. Unprecedented ’til the next week, obviously.

Keep thinking about Liz Truss’s reading at the Queen’s funeral as akin to when someone brings their new boyfriend or girlfriend to a big family event and they’re then in all the pictures forever despite only lasting 11 months as a couple.
