THE prime minister has been praised for her obliviousness to irony after claiming there is ‘no such thing as an unsackable minister’.
Theresa May, following an election campaign which reached maximum levels of irony, yesterday announced that no minister can consider themselves secure in their job while completely failing to get it.
Nathan Muir, from Worcester, said: “She can’t continually be making statements like that with no recognition of how perfectly they apply to herself. This is better than ‘strong and stable’. I’m starting to think it’s deliberate.
“If she’s just playing this straight the whole time then she is the greatest ironist of all time; the ‘magic money tree’, ‘unifying Britain’, sheer genius.
“But actually it’s deliciously ironic that she’s making us think that, because she’s really just thick as mince.”
May said: “The British people have told me that they want me to get on with the job. That’s what they said. I don’t understand why you’re smirking.”
