http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jun/24/memes-twitter-remain-cheer-you-up Version 0 of 1. There is one thing Brits do best, whether in or out of the European Union. And that is to take the piss out of everything and anything. While the stock markets tumble, the pound plummets and history hurtles forward, we can rely on memes to get us through the tumult. We hope. Fortunately, Twitter provides them in abundance. Whether it’s opining on how history will look back on today: History exam question 2063 'Explain the negative effects that leaving the EU in 2016 had on the UK and discuss who was to blame' [30 marks] Or there’s this variation on the idiot sandwich: we're all thinking it #EURefResults pic.twitter.com/WevNBvwZhu This oh-so political chat-up line: Hey girl are you invoking article 50 because I would tell any number of lies to get you but wouldn't have a clue what to do once I did A statement on the general chaos that is our current political situation, aptly illustrated by the IT Crowd: 2016 is fun pic.twitter.com/dq60cUd25g Sky News broadcasting someone shouting insults at Boris Johnson: Loving sky news catching this woman calling Boris a twat pic.twitter.com/RjxvQoKIsI This one doesn’t need explaining and maybe it won’t cheer you up at all because the pound really doesn’t look great right now: Look what I just found, a 90p coin pic.twitter.com/yjvI426OTl How long until Brexit causes yet another jump in the price of Freddos? pic.twitter.com/651lsySF4h Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear: First images released of design for new £1 coin. pic.twitter.com/iqXQ4FMbCN But at least we will always have the town of Falkirk’s Hitler door: There is a door in Falkirk that looks like Hitler #bbcreferendum pic.twitter.com/TvP2k9e1YX And also that time Ed Miliband looked like a DJ: Miliband looks like he's spinning records. #EUref #bbcreferendum pic.twitter.com/dXpCXfbN6E For a wonderful moment, before most of the rest of Wales emphatically joined Leave, the land of my fathers looked a bit like a pig wearing a jolly blue top hat: stop everything. this looks like a pig wearing a top hat pic.twitter.com/Zh8a3a1o4o Speaking of things that look like other things, it’s incredible just how much the cliffs of Dover look like financial doom: #EuRef pic.twitter.com/uCLqrJkmEW And if you’re still feeling sad, just remember the UK is the Ginger Spice of the EU: This is like when Geri Halliwell overestimated her viability as a solo artist and left the Spice Girls. #Brexit |
