Cher wishes she could turn back time over Brexit

Name: Cher.

Age: 70.

Appearance: The UK’s greatest champion.

Do EU believe in life after love? Right, let’s put a stop to this early. No puns.

You’re no fun. No, but Cher is. That woman has the greatest, wisest, most opinionated, most newsworthy Twitter account in the whole world.

So what has she said about Brexit? She’s said:

I beg your pardon? Look, this is just how Cher tweets. Indiscriminate capitalisation, random numbers, arbitrary punctuation. It’s a bit like being screamed at in a pub, admittedly. But at least she’s on our side.

It’s impenetrable. At least that tweet didn’t have any emoji in it. An hour later she wrote:

So she doesn’t think the leave campaign can put the country back together again? No. But it’s OK. She’s still rooting for us. An hour after that, she wrote:

That’s heartening, I think. Is she always so politically astute? Um …

No? Well, I mean she hasn’t quite grasped subtlety yet. In the aftermath of the Istanbul airport bombings, for example, she tweeted:

Cripes. It’s fine. She’s since apologised, writing:

You could argue that using emojis at all in a tweet commemorating the victims of a bombing is probably in bad taste. Yes, but she’s apologised. Also she’s Cher. This is her world. We just live in it.

Do say: “[praying hands emoji]4CHER SHE, Has“GOOD” understanding OF [Union Jack emoji] [toilet emoji] [crying face emoji] [giant double red exclamation mark emoji]”

Don’t say: “Can we get a translator in?”
