13 favourite things people said about that photo of Boris Johnson watching England beat Germany
As you might possibly have heard by now, England beat Germany 2-0 at Wembley to reach the quarter finals of the Euros.
Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane got the goals in England’s first win over Germany in the knockout stage of a competition since – you guessed it – 1966.
Boris Johnson was very keen to let you know that he was watching too, so his team shared this picture of the prime minister on his Twitter account.

He later appeared to switch to another TV.
And both pictures prompted some very funny responses. Here are 13 favourites.

Apparently that measly £300,000/year isn’t enough to buy chairs.

"I am definitely spending two hours perched on the end of this table in a corridor opposite a hastily-arranged TV sat next to somebody who loathes me watching a sport I don't like supported by people I think are vermin & I think you're stupid enough to think otherwise." https://t.co/87KVHbEMGr
