We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
Actor Hugh Grant sought a little humor in response to British Prime Minister Borris Johnson’s announcement Thursday that he will resign and found it in the most brilliant way.

Grant posted a tweet, tagging protestor and activist Steve Bray on Thursday, subtly suggesting he play the theme song to the British comedy TV series “The Benny Hill Show” outside of Parliament.

“Morning @snb19692 Glad you have your speakers back,” Grant wrote. “Do you by any chance have the Benny Hill music to hand?”

Bray, as it happened, did.




 
Boris Johnson’s Comic Downfall and the U.S.-U.K. ‘Special Relationship’


The British are masters of political satire. From Jonathan Swift in the 18th century, to the cartoons of George Cruikshank in the 19th, to the puppetry send ups of the Thatcher Era on Spitting Image, Brits have always seen the humor in their politics. Seldom however, did life imitate the art of low comedy as it did during the administration of U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who on Thursday announced he would be stepping down from his office.
