Chancellor George Osborne made his Autumn Statement today, consciously avoiding that weird claw thing he did last year.
In true fashion, Twitter ripped it to shreds.
Obviously everyone pointed out how evil he always looks:
Some foresaw partisan opposition bashing:
(And they were right)
While others just rolled out jokes about how hungover he looked in PMQs last week:
Or jokes about how bloody annoying he is:
That petulant tone did seem to be sending Danny Alexander to sleep...

Some tweeters gave Osborne a bit more credit than he's due, he's not exactly Derren Brown.

At least he started tackling the Conservative Party's biggest enemy:
But he did starting gasping a bit halfway through.
Seriously George, take a breather, you're spraying everywhere.
A few people started putting words in his mouth when he couldn't get them out:

Some people would've preferred an Autumn Fashion Statement.
Maybe a little number like this:
Others would have preferred Osborne being sent to Mars to find the intelligent life he was joking about:
Some tweeters were happy to keep things light:
While some people just had to be all serious about it.
But mostly, the British people were just playing the Autumn Statement Drinking Game.
