Living in Spain, can confirm. It's being awful.
Sir, this is a joke about how it would be awful if the sun were always up.
But also, the UK just had its second warmest June ever (England's warmest ever) and was over 30C in many places. During these heatwaves, the temperature rises rapidly, making it uncomfortable because people are not used to the warmer temperatures. After 7 days of warm temperatures, people get used to it.
I know but making fun of the uk, especially england is always justified and funi
As a brit (specifically english) i agree
Damn, did it hit 20c?
Poorly timed as the sun finally set on the British empire for the first time in over a century just a few months ago
When?
I don't get it
It's an old saying. The Empire had colonies all over the world so at any point in time it was day for at least one colony. Therefore the sun never set on The Empire as a whole.
The joke is making fun of that old saying, pretending it means there is no night for the British isles and all the sun is causing the temperature of the isles to increase.
I hope that's enough explanation to remove any humor from the joke.
Na, you’re good. The joke didnt have humour to begin with enough to ruin
Although the saying ends '...on the British empire', not the weird wording in the poster that no one would ever use.
No no change the Yorkshire one to fookin 'ell please
The sun never sets? Is that why y'all got them olde timey kaniggets?
The Britain's empire?
Is that W before Britain? What does it mean?
