There’s just over three weeks to go until Britain officially leaves the European Union, changing the course of the country for good.
Prime minister Boris Johnson is in Brussels meeting with European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen hoping to “thrash out” the issues which still divide the two sides. It’s all a bit up in the air at the moment – lots of back and forth about the terms and conditions surrounding the Brexit deal.
As such, this epic divorce and the Covid-19 pandemic is dominating conversations, left, right and centre. But in the midst of all the uncertainty and fear, this past week has gifted us with a few joyous gems.
Man gets vaccinated, becomes national treasure instantly – then owns Piers Morgan
Fresh after receiving the coronavirus vaccine Martin Kenyon, 91, had a little dig at Piers Morgan while addressing his newfound fame.
Kenyon went viral on Tuesday as he told a CNN reporter he was late for his jab because he “damn well couldn’t find anywhere to park”.
He then joined today’s Good Morning Britain where he described the mass attention to his widely shared parking quip as “rather ridiculous”.
When Morgan began to ask detailed questions about his life stating: ‘I know a lot about you’, the 91-year-old replied: ‘Yes, you do,’ before asking: ‘And who are you? Who are you?’. Priceless.
Dionne Warwick’s Twitter is the only good thing to happen in 2020
Legendary US singer Dionne Warwick is the new queen of Twitter, questioning her musical peers for all to see and absolutely no one is mad about it.
The 79-year-old asked Chance The Rapper why, since he obviously raps, does he need to include that fact in his stage name?
Warwick also directed a question to singer The Weeknd about the spelling of his stage name and shared an exchange with Taylor Swift.
And the Walk On By singer wants you to know that she tweets her own posts too, okay?!
In a video captioned: “Came here to find foolishness in my replies”, Warwick said: “And this is for all of you tweeters who have decided I am not tweeting my own stuff to you. I want you to know I am – and I’m getting very, very, very good at it.”
