DUBAI: In the aftermath of Monday’s terror attack in Manchester, British Prime Minister Theresa May raised the country’s threat level to “critical” — the highest terror threat level possible.
However, British Twitter users have taken it upon themselves to rally together and use humor to combat fear.
Using the hashtag #BritishThreatLevels, users have shared a flurry of funny tweets about what scares them most.
From awkward social interactions…
