@WuMargaret @kotaro @urlyman They could probably fill out a whole … reflecting pool

@WuMargaret @kotaro @urlyman Might be a new self-description for political apathics: "Lettuce heads"

@Thebratdragon @urlyman and a mouse (it’d make crossing the floor an interesting exercise)
@at @Thebratdragon @urlyman A cat, a mouse, and a lettuce walk into Downing Street No. 10...

…I apologise for the lettuce shouting that the above post inflicts upon users of screen readers.
Here is a less shouty version with just the number of lettuces for each PM. 1 lettuce represents roughly 7 weeks of tenure.
Keir Starmer: 15
Rishi Sunak: 13
Liz Truss: 1
Boris Johnson: 23
Theresa May: 23
David Cameron: 46
Gordon Brown: 21
Tony Blair: 76
John Major: 489 Prime Ministers, 266 lettuces and almost 36 years later the UK is still on course for an Iceberg 🤪
@urlyman Come on , you can't leave out Maggie Thatcher, weighing in at (I believe) a whopping 86 lettuces?

@floe the post at the top is *exactly* 500 characters. Everyone since has been Thatcherite anyway

@shaedrich ha! No doubt

I feel like this is maybe a little unfair to the lettuce. Liz Truss did not last for a full lettuce, the lettuce was still in good health when she resigned.
@The4thCircle hence ‘approximated’. Not sure I’m eager to eat a 7-week old cut lettuce, or older https://mastodon.social/@urlyman/116793332104050568

@urlyman Larry the cat: 114
@artemist I thank you for this stat. I am feline it

@shaedrich @shiawase @kbm0 brassicacious idea

@urlyman Would be an interesting way to vote:
1. Voters are ask if they would prefer the contender or the lettuce as PM
2. When the lettuce gets a majority, there has to be another round of elections
3. Media could present this similar to selecting a new pope ("Nope, lettuce again, no news")@urlyman Or what would be an unmistakably British way to say "having drawn a blank"?
