SOCIAL MEDIA THIS past week has been mostly dominated by jokes about Theresa May’s disastrous decision to call a snap election.
The only person even coming close to rivalling that buzz has been Jeremy Corbyn:
Even this morning, his quotes on the Sunday breakfast chat shows are going viral
But, amid all the election chaos, people have stumbled across a tweet from 2011 and it’s just about the best thing to come from the UK election:
In 2011, Jeremy Corbyn asked his followers on Twitter for Facebook likes in the most wholesome way
<3
Seeing it pop up on people’s timeline has been a joy
Like an adorable relic from the past
So, so wholesome
Getting that 1000th like was a turning point
And now look at him
Look, it’s understandably made people emotional after a long week
There’s a definite sense of a relative who’s just getting the hang of Facebook
And his supporters are only delighted how he’s gone from 999 to 1.2 million
Started from the bottom, now he’s here
And he finally pushed past that 999 like count on his “fanpage” <3
