  1. I was planning to share this story myself. It’s just too funny not to be enjoyed en masse.

    It’s been fixed to a Tesco in Walthamstow by The Daily Star.

    Let’s erect a giant lettuce statue in St James park so future generations can remember that our nation for a brief period was governed by a vegetable.

  3. Especially when you consider at least two of those weeks were taken up by the queen’s death, so she couldn’t do anything wrong in that period. She was on a mission to screw things up.

    >It is not known if the Tesco store in Walthamstow stocks the Norfolk Peer, which Truss once said was her favourite potato.

    That is incredible word-count-meeting filler
