It's safe to say this month (just like last) has been a turbulent time for British politics, and while it's stressful AF, at least we have twitter.
So, here are some tweets that pretty much sum up the political landscape of Britain over the last month:
Kwasi and Liz's plan became clear.
"We get in, we kill the Queen, we get out."
Then began the parliamentary merry-go-round.
Liz Truss firing Kwasi Kwarteng is like a ventriloquist firing the dummy for saying the wrong thing.
Comprehensive recap of Suella Braverman’s time as Home Secretary:
Suella really put the "tofu" into the phrase "that's how to fuck everything up"
when the BBC News channel announces 'Welcome to viewers of PBS in the United States' you know it's getting real in Westminster
Ah yes, the Liz vs lettuce showdown.
Omg the daily Star lettuce now has its own Wikipedia page
flatmate has just asked me whether i think the lettuce voted leaf or romaine in the brexit referendum and im frankly furious at how funny i found it
The lettuce winning was probably for the best, if not for the tweets alone.
The lettuce after outlasting Liz Truss
If you have more than 1,080 hours in a video game, you've played it longer than Liz Truss was Prime Minister of the UK
Yesterday Vs Today https://t.co/rIzVflmLDR
🚨Big Brother House you are live on air. Please do not swear. The next housemate to be evicted .. is….
Who is going to play Liz Truss on the last 10 seconds of "The Crown?"
Oh, so *now* the Conservatives want to have a second vote about something that was clearly a fucking stupid idea the first time round
Of course, Britain's favourite animatronic meatloaf decided to stir things up with an attempt to regain office.
Boris Johnson looking prime ministerial (flies done up, can’t see his penis)
"This is like putting a shite back in your arse" 😄
As ever Private Eye has it
And then, despite insisting he had enough backers, decided to drop out of the race...
I got all six numbers on the national lottery last night, but I don't feel like it's the right time to win all that money, so I have ripped up my ticket
Boris Johnson is out. Those 100 MPs who were definitely, absolutely, positively backing him will be devastated.
I do so have 102 backers, you just don’t know them, they go to a different school.
🚨Boris pulls out! Now there’s a first.
Which was evidently heartbreaking news to Nadine Dorries.
Hang this in the Louvre
Nadine Dorries in the Bring Back Boris group WhatsApp
So Britain looks set to have its richest-ever PM to navigate us through a cost of living crisis.
Boris Johnson when Rishi Sunak becomes Prime Minister.
Find someone who looks at you the way Nadhim Zahawi looks at whoever is most likely to be in charge of the Conservative Party next
can’t believe Johnson flew all the way back from the Dominican Republic to watch Sunak become leader, now that’s true friendship
Downing Street staff make preparations for next PM:
Sad that Rishi Sunak has inherited economic chaos from himself
BREAKING: This week's Prime Minister is Rishi Sunak.
Rishi really became PM through clearing. Wow.
the Sunaks moving from their multi-million pound mansions into the Downing Street flat Carrie decorated
It's highly likely that by the time you're reading this, it'll be fully out of date and there'll be a new PM getting welcomed into number 10, but hey, at least the jokes will be good.
