I may have to update this meme with more relevant faces.

The Conservative Party has reacted to its epic drubbing in the local elections by stating that it’s not remotely bothered and, actually, it wanted to lose, so you’re the idiots for laughing, and they’re not crying, you’re crying and why don’t you just sod off!

After a long period, Conservative Party chairman, Greg Hands, eventually agreed to answer some questions through the keyhole of his bedroom door.

He went on, “It’s such a big lie that we were desperate not to get utterly creamed. We totally let the others win. We all know the local elections are just for losers anyway.

Move would mark a government U-turn in wake of local elections in England

UK ministers plan to widen the forms of photo identification that voters can present at polling stations in future, as concerns grow that the requirement to show an ID card may have reduced participation in Thursday’s local elections in England.

Voters have for the first time been legally obliged to produce proof of identity in order to cast a ballot — a move criticised by campaigners as “disproportionate” in view of historically low levels of in-person electoral fraud.

Pressure groups and some voters on Thursday reported people being turned away from polling stations for lack of ID in different parts of England.

Jess Garland, director of policy at the Electoral Reform Society, said there had been “countless examples” of disenfranchisement, “from people caught out by having the wrong type of photo ID to others turned away for not looking enough like their photo”.

“One voter turned away is one voter too many,” she added.
