    She’s just mad that the lettuce lasted longer than she did.

    It was, in fact, hilarious.

    No that was super funny. Crashing the UK economy seemingly overnight all in a bid to save the richest people in the country a few bucks? Now that’s not funny

      She was certainly efficient in her destruction

    Thanks Liz. We had almost forgotten that but now you’ve jogged our memories on how funny that was.

    “I don’t think it was particularly funny"

    Then why am I laughing so hard?

    I bet the lettuce was offended more.

    Should have lasted longer than a lettuce then, shouldn’t she?

    I personally found it hilarious, and my absolute best memory of her premiership.

      The longest serving English monarch died while the shortest serving PM was in office. That sticks out for me.

    She wasn’t known for her sense of humour.
