UK Prime Ministerial tenures since Milk-Snatcher Thatcher, approximated as lettuces

@forty2 I believe the Truss:Scaramucci exchange rate is 4.9:1… roughly 🥬 🥬🥬🥬🥬:

@urlyman not waving a Liz Truss flag by any means but a lot of what they announced was beneficial to me and a breath of fresh air (apart from the unfunded part although magically this government can fund £32B for a magic carbon capture folly).

The problem I have is more of the same is not good for the people of this country. Endless cuts and more direct and stealth taxing. Excuses to fund private companies. Chasing endless growth rather than focusing on the wellbeing of the populous and the betterment of the world, their raison d'être.

And yet everyone says it's the Americans who use bizarre units of measurement.

@SQLAllFather fair. There is a conversion rate https://mastodon.social/@urlyman/116793993565687961

@urlyman The head of lettuce is a brilliant unit but you’ve also introduced “the Truss” as an equivalent unit. Bravo!

[urlyman@mastodon.social]

@Kimota94 thank you

@urlyman

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.

@rokabe @LillyHerself @urlyman Yeah, he didn't particularly like foreign ones …

[shaedrich@mastodon.online]

@urlyman @trashboypro Excuse me? Have you called Liz Truss old? /s

I'm sure she's been called worse though

@WuMargaret @kotaro @urlyman And that particular nightmare already lasts many a lettuce

@urlyman @kbm0 Caviar sounds appropriate

[shaedrich@mastodon.online]

@shiawase @kbm0 @urlyman Does that mean, you would measure EU politician's tenures in brussel sprouts?

@feijoa @Lazarou @kbm0 @urlyman He looks better in vanilla

[wumargaret@ack.nerdfight.online]

@shaedrich @kotaro @urlyman Sooooo many heads of lettuce

[shaedrich@mastodon.online]

@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")

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