BRITS TELL BORIS TO FCK OFF: How ‘Please leave my town’ became an anti-Boris Johnson rallying cry ‘What a quintessentially British and polite way to basically tell the Prime Minister to fck off.’ dailydot.com Alex Andreou/Twitter Siobhan Ball— Sept 5 at 11:32AM British Prime Minister Boris Johnson–primarily thanks to his unwavering approach to Brexit–is leading one of the most unpopular governments that Britain has seen in a whopping 40 years. His steadfast refusal to extend the Brexit deadline–the date the U.K. is set to leave the European Union–in order to negotiate a deal for that exit has fractured the Tory party. Even Johnson’s own brother quit as a Tory member of parliament (MP) and minister, citing “unresolvable tension” in his role, per the BBC. On Thursday, Johnson said on record that he would “rather be dead in a ditch” than extend the Brexit deadline. But that wasn’t all that was caught on record. While shaking hands with British citizens in the streets of Leeds, Johnson was politely told to “please leave my town”–a phrase that has transcended into an anti-Boris Johnson rallying cry. It’s apparently British for f*ck off, according to Twitter user @SnazzyAzzy Azmina@SnazzyAzzy What a quintessentially British and polite way to basically tell the Prime Minister to fuck off. #PleaseLeaveMyTown t.co Alex Andreou ?@sturdyAlex “Please leave my town.” “I will, very soon.” 12 2:12 PM - Sep 5, 2019 Twitter Ads info and privacy See Azmina's other Tweets “Maybe this could become a ‘thing’ #PleaseLeaveMyTown.
