Twitter reacts to the birth of child number….

It's a happy day for them.... Except for the brief period when she was in Labour.

Although Britons remain embroiled in coronavirus-induced crisis they were today offered – in the words of a couple of Tory MPs – a moment of “unalloyed joy”, as Prime Minister Boris Johnson and fiancée Carrie Symonds announced the birth of their first child.

With the PM’s parenting record already a hot topic among the country’s chattering classes, many observers were quick to weigh in on the birth of the latest Johnson – and we’ve compiled some of the best responses.

Comedian Rory Bremner had his say on the politics of the delivery.

Happy news for them though. Except for the brief period when she was in Labour. #borisbaby #BabyBoris.

— Rory Bremner (@rorybremner) April 29, 2020

Gary Lineker noted the convenient timing of the baby boy’s birth.

It’s pretty much 9 months since @BorisJohnson became Prime Minister. A very successful election.

Speculation is rife about what the newborn will be named, but this commentator was disappointed that Carrie hadn’t given birth to a girl.

Disappointed Boris and Carrie have had a boy because I’d been hoping it would be a girl and they would name it Doris.

Satirical news site The Poke noted that the first-time mother has had plenty of prep for taking care of a baby.

When asked how she’ll cope with the crying, sleepless nights, constant feeding, excessive pooping and tantrums, Carrie Symonds responded that, now she has a baby, she won’t have time to deal with that behaviour from Boris anymore.

Finally, of course, there was plenty of fun to be poked at the ever-increasing size of Boris’s family.

Congratulations to Boris Johnson on the birth of child number ?‍♂️!

And another.

If Boris Johnson had a few weeks off every time he had a baby he’d never go to work

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.
