It’s fish n’ chips Friday. When I placed our order over the phone I did ask the woman at the chip shop if the fish was ‘happy British fish’ as Jacob Rees-Morgue claims. There was a pause. “He’s a right twat, isn’t he?” she sniggered. “All I know is the fish is dead.” Good call! pic.twitter.com/fA3hkRtFZb
