The Tory backbencher
UK insults are the best
Backbencher is an actual term for a member of parliament without a government office.
That’s why UK insults are the best. Referring to a backbencher as a backbencher isn’t an insult. Referring to the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom as a backbencher, because she lost her office and now sits on the back benches, is an insult. It’s an incredibly snide remark that seems perfectly normal unless you know why it’s not.
So it’s institutionally approved shade
No, it’s member of Parliament who’s not a frontbencher - i.e. who’s not a government minister or an official spokesperson for their party in Parliament.
Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves and Ed Davey don’t hold government office, since they’re opposition politicians, but they’re not backbenchers.
It’d be more realistic if she had held it by the neck in one clenched fist. More on brand.
Everyone: Liz Truss pls just go away.
Liz Truss: lamb.
Pork markets. Cheese. Disgrace!
I’ve no idea how the Tory party collapsed so hard as to leave her in the upper echelons of it.
Liz Truss has been mocked after sharing an Easter message alongside a picture of herself holding a lamb outside a church which was devastated by a fire two years ago
That lamb is looking pretty good after its fire ordeal…
Was the… lamb involved? I didn’t read the article.
Yeah, the lamb was on a welding crew doing repairs, a spark caught the thatched roof and the church burnt.
He’s a real baaad guy. He’s been on the lam ever since.
Oh, ewe!
laughs sheepishly
I do not approve of these puns. Because I am a miserable bastard.
Baa, humbug.
You really pulled the wool over our eyes with that one.
I love the internet. You’ve made my night. Wife is rolling her eyes at my enjoyment, but that doesn’t matter.
Trogdorlamb comes in the night!
Fuck yes
I figured y’all would’ve locked her up after QE died like a week after meeting this woman
The lamb will be dead by now as well.
Better than Trump’s upside down Bible photo shoot.
Yeah there’s hardly any tear gas in that propaganda
Has Rees-Mogg done his annual autoerotic asphyxiation yet?
Nanny has been been a little too busy recently to watch him, but she promises she will if he’s a good boy and works hard to punish all the nasty poors.
Thankyou, both, for those thoroughly unwanted mental images.

An I too late to roast this lamb?
