SUE, YOU'RE SHOUTING AT TEA


Earlier today #SueYoureShoutingAtTea was bizarrely the number one trending hashtag on Twitter.  The leftist tantrum against Yorkshire Tea has yet to subside, despite the fact the company had absolutely nothing to do with Rishi Sunak's innocuous photo.  Even for the petty-minded childish morons of the left this is beyond a parody.

So, who is Sue?  She is just one of the thousands of idiots bombarding the company's Twitter account with messages of outrage.  However, the brand has turned the tables on Sue in a marketing coup d'état, leading to the hashtag #SueYoureShoutingAtTea taking Twitter by storm and exposing just how daft these balloon head leftists truly are.

According to the Huffington Post this was what Sue wrote initially: “The last thing I want to do when I’m making a tea is to think about what the Tory, who was blatantly advertising your tea, paid or otherwise, will be doing to continue to grow the rich/poor gap".  When Yorkshire Tea responded to the weekend's onslaught she had more to say and you can see the full exchange below, ending with the now infamous 'Sue, you're shouting at tea' masterpiece.

The line is so popular that some quick-thinking entrepreneurs have reproduced it on mugs and t-shirts.  Bit of a backfire there Sue!

LEFT LOSE IT OVER TEABAGS

"Nothing like a good Yorkshire brew" - Rishi Sunak

The unbridled hatred of leftist keyboard warriors found a new target recently following an innocuous tweet from the new Chancellor of the Exchequer.  On Friday Rishi Sunak posted a picture of himself on Twitter posing with a large bag of Yorkshire Tea.  There's nothing particularly out of the ordinary about this as Sunak represents the Yorkshire constituency of Richmond.  There was no suggestion that Yorkshire Tea were sponsoring Sunak or the Conservatives, or that the company had any prior knowledge whatsoever - in fact it didn't.  However, none of this could deter the reactionary headcases of the left and social media outrage ensued, ironically just a week after many of the same culprits were using the hashtag #BeKind in response to the suicide of Caroline Flack.


Such was the leftist outrage that Yorkshire Tea responded publicly several times over the weekend and yesterday noted that Rishi Sunak was not the first politician to pose with their brand.  Jeremy Corbyn had done so in 2017.


Presumably there was no outrage when magic grandpa posed with the brew?  Funny that.
