Theresa May wrote a letter to the nation and the nation went postal – 17 hilarious reactions

The EU27 – which is the other members of the European Union, rather than a food additive that makes kids hyperactive – has approved the deal negotiated by Theresa May and her ever-changing Brexit team, so she now needs to get it past parliament. She started by trying to win the hearts and minds of the UK with this letter.

tl;dr “Support the deal because we’ll have more fish and fewer foreigners.”

Comedian David Schneider boiled the letter down to this.

Of course, the thing about letters is that they generally invite a reply – and she got plenty of those.

A begging letter from a prime minister is not a good look for Britain. https://t.co/H3uqM7Bcof

Dear T-dog,

You, and most other MPs, have spent the last 30 months determinedly making sure my views were utterly unrepresented in Parliament. And now, when you need me, you come, on your hand and knees, telling me dogshit is actually pancake.

Thank you, no.

We never voted for you & when you held an election to gather support for your failing approach, you LOST MPs.
The ref your predecessor ran away from was a cavalier attempt to draw right-wing voters to your party from UKIP.
You’re an embarrassment.
You will be remembered as that.

Very grateful to Theresa May for showing us her poignant letter to Santa Claus.
