    This is marvellous. When British people realise things have gone a bit rubbish, they say “Right” very meaningfully.https://twitter.com/VinnyITV/status/752521551514312704 …

        I could watch it over and over. Your last moments as Prime Minister. Wandering off like Bertie Wooster going to get a sandwich.

        @SimonNRicketts it's very British. He might as well asked if the kettle was on.

        A slightly longer version of Cameron’s exit. There’s not only a ‘right’ but the classic follow-up ‘good.’ I adore itpic.twitter.com/w311FNKabL

      @SimonNRicketts @VinnyITV as amusing as this is it also makes you realise how incredibly intrusive this age of always being 'on' really is

      @SimonNRicketts @MattTempest My parents' dogs associated an exclamation of 'Right' to mean walkies. Caused regular excitement false alarms.
