Drawing a line under things and moving on



PM Boris Johnson – proof that you can achieve anything if you’re rich, white and male enough – has inspired others to draw lines under things and move on.


Shelley Stevenson told partner Youssef Younis ‘Sorry babes, I’ve been shagging your brother, now let’s draw a line under this and move on.’ A heartbroken Younis choked back tears as he replied ‘Well, in fairness I have gambled away our savings, car and house. Now let’s draw a line under this and move on.’


Tory intern Henry Hootington-Hurst noted ‘Boris has been drawing a line under things and moving on – jobs, wives, children, responsibilities – his whole life. The important thing to realise is that there are no consequences for him. Shelley and Youssef on the other hand are fucked.’
