it has come to my attention that many of my international followers were unaware that the black mirror episode where the prime minister (loosely based on david cameron) fucked a pig in fact aired several years before the news emerged that the prime minister (david cameron) had actually fucked a pig

and furthermore, the prime minister who actually did fuck a pig did not do it due to a hostage situation, but as an initiation for a uni drinking society.

the other difference between the black mirror episode and the time the prime minister actually fucked a pig was that the pig david cameron actually fucked was dead.

so if you ever wonder why the british are so Like That, remember that in the last decade we have had five prime ministers and the objectively least terrible one was the one who actually fucked a pig to get into a posh club
@stavvers the fact that he was the least bad is entirely accurate and most of us assume the pig thing was true even if we didn’t read the articles about it - but it’s very hard to succinctly describe to a non British person why it’s not actually surprising to any of us that it’s all true.
@stavvers also he was single handedly responsible for Britain leaving the EU - due to incompetence rather than a desire to leave the EU. But even factoring in the economic and reputational damage of that - he is still the least bad.
