Fucking imagine that you hadn't watched The Power of The Doctor yet but you're watching the morning news show Breakfast on a Monday morning and as you're drinking your tea or coffee or whatever you look up and the news guy compares Boris fucking Johnson trying to be the Prime Minister again to David Tennant as the 14th Doctor.

I really hope Paddington bear will be the new prime minister in the UK
I mean the evidence is right here:
-he’s the personification of an British gentleman
-Hugh Grant (whomst I just learned played the villain in Paddington 2( so he knows the bear personally!)) was somehow an instigator to play the benny hill themesong infront of the Parliament, if not for Paddington why would he do that?
-why else would he meet up with the queen ???!!!

So, just to summarise
UK Prime Minister Liz Truss fired her Chancellor, replacing him with a man dragged back from political obscurity where he’d languished since his success in uniting the entirety of the NHS in their hatred of him. A man who is his own rhyming slang...
Then her Home Secretary fired off a series of increasingly bizarre and hateful tweets and other public statements, complaining about the police encouraging people to report transphobic hate crimes and [checks notes] how the “tofu-eating, Guardian-reading wokerati” are ruining the UK.
She then did something that broke security protocols and quit with the saltiest resignation letter I’ve seen in a while.
In the meantime, the Health Secretary talked about how she wanted to make antibiotics available over the counter and how she’s often shared “spare” antibiotics with friends. (Incidentally, this is a great way to encourage medically resistant bacteria – diabolical notion.)
Then the Chief Whip resigned. Then unresigned. Apparently. It’s all becoming a bit of a blur.
Then Liz Truss had a big shout in Parliament about how she’s not a quitter.
Then she quit less than 24 hours later.
This is all in the last week, by the way. It’s like a bloody soap opera.
In the meantime, among the potential runners for leader of the Conservative Party we get to include Boris Bloody Johnson who, let’s not forget, lost the confidence of his ministers and party, and still has criminal investigations pending for having partied, presumably using our tax money, while the rest of us stayed away from loved ones to keep them safe.
But it’s okay, because we Got Brexit Done. And Liz Truss, after 44 days in office, gets a £115,000 pension every year FOR LIFE for having been Prime Minister. All this while nurses can’t afford to heat their homes and have to rely on foodbanks to feed their families. Rank obscenity.
To summarise a bit further:
We are SO SCREWED. And a literal lettuce in a wig lasted longer than Liz Truss.

The last few Prime Ministers have just been an increasingly long chain of “well, at least they can’t be worse than the last dude” and fate going “ask and ye shall receive, motherfucker.”

Saw this tweet about the UK Prime Ministerial candidates (all members of the Conservative party) who are currently stabbing each other in the back in a revolting scramble for power:
And I thought of that bit in Night Watch
'What else?'
'Rather hopeful news, sir,' said Carrot, smiling. 'You know the Hooms? The street gang?'
'What about them?'
‘They've initiated their first troll member.'
'What? I thought they went around beating up trolls! I thought that was the whole point!’
'Well, apparently young Calcite likes beating up trolls, too.' 'And that's good?'
'In a way, sir, I suppose it's a step forward.'
'United in hatred, you mean?'
'I suppose so, sir,' said Carrot.

Okay, bear with me, I’m not British.
So, to my understanding, to sum things up, Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of England, refused to resign after there were calls for him to.
So 50+ people that work for him resigned??? Am I getting that right??? All in 24 hours??
Then he resigned and people appear to be very happy about it
Oh also Larry the cat has the peoples vote for the new PM
