The Telegraph warned that ‘Labour is coming after all that gives us pleasure’ and got hilariously owned – 24 favourites
We regret to inform you that the Telegraph has been at it again.
The home to some of the most outrageous exaggerations in British headlines has allowed yet another of its columnists to make a claim that absolutely cannot be true.
Twitter/X treated it with the contempt it deserved.

Oh dear – I’m so sorry to read this, @AnnabelDenham1.
It really is so very sad that all the things that give you pleasure will soon be taken away by Keir Starmer and the adults who will potentially be coming into government very soon.
How very dare they.
