🧵 THREAD: Another year on normal island over. Here’s a thread of British political moments from 2021 which prove just how ridiculous this country is:

1/ In a clip which sums everything up, Boris Johnson had to be asked 'is everything OK' by a reporter

2/ Michael Gove busting out the most unhinged dance moves of the century, let alone 2021

3/ Tony Blair unveiling his new, ridiculous lockdown hair

4/ Rishi Sunak having to backtrack after outing himself as a 'coke addict' to some schoolkids

5/ Matt Hancock running away from reporters

6/ And then Matt Hancock having to release this toe-curling resignation video

7/ Dom Cummings trying in vain to explain a meme to a select committee, an experience felt by every young person trying to explain the internet at Christmas

8/ Tory MP Charles Walker committing to walking around with a pint of milk in protest at.....something

9/ And then actually turning up to TV interviews with a pint of milk

10/ This MP claiming that men were being driven to crime because Dr Who is played by a woman

11/ COP President Alok Sharma dubbing himself 'No Drama Sharma'

12/ Liz Truss simply....refusing to define a party

13/ Keir 'hell yes I'm tuss enough' Starmer donning the boxing gloves

14/ Whatever the fuck this was

15/ Dominic Raab thinking 'the sea was closed' might be a defence which works in his favour

16/ Nicki Minaj sending for Boris. The way she says "BBBawris" will haunt me forever

17/ Boris then addressing the beef in an official press conference

18/ YouTuber Niko Omilana running for London Mayor as a joke but actually getting more votes than Laurence Fox

19/ Boris donning a police uniform for the start of 'crime week' - which went fantastically for the government

20/ Dom Cummings throwing his weight behind #FreeBritney

21/ Steve Baker removing Nadine Dorries from a Tory WhatsApp group and then dropping the most savage Bitmoji of all time

22/ Obviously, Allegra Stratton's resignation video

23/ Again, however many times you watch Boris Johnson's Peppa Pig speech, it doesn't get better

24/ Therese Coffey belting out this Dirty Dancing banger at Tory conference, just as benefits are being cut

25/ Boris Johnson having to use his speech at COP26 to deny that this is a corrupt country

26/ When, as Afghanistan was falling, everyone was obsessed with Pen Farthing and his dogs

27/ Geoffrey Cox, definitely not carrying out his second job from his parliamentary office

28/ In a taste of life after politics for everyone in this thread, former deputy PM Nick Clegg gives a terrifying interview inside the Metaverse

29/ When the Home Office made the most lit video in existence, inspired by anti-piracy VHS ads, to make people stay home

It was deleted after people complained to the Home Office that it would trigger epileptic fits
