IT IS TIME

The man looked up from his beach chair.

"Really?" He said. "I've only just retired."

Death held up a timer. A single grain was about to fall. And then... It didn't.

CURIOUS

Vetinari shrugged.

"It is well-known that most of the mainstream media do not approach a Labour Government in a neutral way.

Some blatantly misrepresent what is happening, but more often they simply do not report activity, leaving people with a sense that the government is doing nothing."

Nothing says legitimate organic Right Wing uprising in the UK like a meaningless petition that gets retweeted by a foreign billionaire with 200 million followers on the platform he controls.

But wait til you hear where the signatures are coming from!

🧵1/9
Foreign Billionaire tweets about a pointless UK petition to his 200 million followers, twice in 3 hours and the Right Wing get super excited that the signups are an organic show the “will of the people”🙄
