Can you believe this arse got voted in. /s

Not by the public.

Just by his colleagues in his own party. THEY wanted him.

Hah! Missed the /s.

Was he even elected by his party? I thought he won by default. I may be misremembering though he is the longest sitting pm this election cycle.

You are correct. When they had a choice between him and a lettuce they chose the bat shit lettuce. When she fucked up so bad and quit they gave it to him as he was runner up.

They were sorting of at the point where they were going "who the fuck else is there?"

If I remember correctly this makes our last 4 PMs

  • The guy who caused brexit then immediately ran away from the consiquences
  • Wish.com Trump
  • A letuce with the mysterious power to kill any celebrity she shakes hands with
  • The guy who lost to the letuce

While I massively disagree with most of what she stood for, at least Thatcher was both competent, and had a spine.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
