The British love their tea. It’s a well established fact. Some Brits, however, see tea as such a fundamentally British thing, that it’s hard to grasp that the contents of their tea bags aren’t actually grown there. That’s what happened to Yorkshire Tea fan Terry.
1. It started when Brexiteer Terry thought Yorkshire Tea was on his side because they want him to drink their tea.

2. Rita is quite amused by his claim that Yorkshire Tea is actually grown in Yorkshire.

3. He doesn’t get the joke.

4. Rita happily drops this bomb on him.

5. Since Terry deleted the tweet below, we’ll show you Rita’s screenshot of it. It’s safe to say that he was not happy.
6. He can’t believe his eyes, so he goes straight to the source.
WHERE IS YOUR TEA GROWN? @YorkshireTea

7. THEY HAPPILY GIVE HIM SOME MORE INFORMATION.

8. He. Is. Not. Happy. In all caps.

— Terry Robinson (@FleetwoodTerryO) February 7, 2018
9. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

10. His world is shattered.

— Terry Robinson (@FleetwoodTerryO) February 7, 2018
11. At least he apologises in the end. Sort of.
YOURE RIGHT IM SORRY. READ MY TWEETS THEY REPLIED AND SET ME STRAIGHT. WONT BE DRINKING THAT SHIT AGAIN

It seems like a storm in a tea cup, but, you know…
