There is good news and bad news about Brexit.
The bad news is that we're going to have to put turnips in our burgers.
The good news is the people who said Brexit would be good for us have more power.Swings and roundabouts. https://t.co/qYrFVRz5tw

Classic Therese Coffey. First she gets her sister a job, now she's trying to boost investment in all the turnips she's clearly related to.

To sum up.
Environment Minister Thérèse Coffey today told us:
1. Those struggling to afford food should "work more hours" and find "higher income" jobs2. Fruit & Veg shortage so Eat Turnip
3. Denied the egg rationing that we can see with our own eyes
The wrong person at the wrong time
