Concretegate: Mike Graham gets the meme treatment – we’ve found the most brutalist of them

"Oo check it out, my concrete plants have shot up over the summer! Trick is: plenty of sunlight, not too much water."

Earlier this week talkRADIO host Mike Graham challenged carpenter and Insulate Britain member Cameron Ford on a number of issues on his show after protesters returned to the roads.

In a bizarre clip, he claimed that you can grow concrete after Ford explained that working with timber is sustainable as trees are regenerative.

He then appeared on Jeremy Kyle’s show to defend himself, but ended up making matters worse.

Reactions

The fall out from concretegate shows no sign of abating, and a flood of people took to social media with very amusing concrete memes.

We’ve rounded up the best of them below:

📞"I'm outraged! I've bought a bag of concrete seeds. Are they growing? Are they heck!"😡😡

🎙️"Why did you think concrete grew?"

📞"Well there's a phrase for it, isn't there! Concrete jungle. Why does concrete grow so fast in the Amazon rainforest but won't grow an inch here?" pic.twitter.com/GhBRF5aGM0

Gardeners. Don't forget that autumn is the ideal time to heavily prune back your concrete, otherwise it will quickly take over your garden. pic.twitter.com/VzK1T7Ie35

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
