Dry your eyes, mate: What’s making Britain cry?

We hit the streets of the Capital to find out when Londoners last cried

This week, it emerged Britons are “more satisfied with their lives” than the European average. Are we really? We were perplexed by these figures and wanted to give the country a place to vent.

We took to the streets of the Capital, armed with hankies, chocolate hearts and teddy bears before asking that pressing question: what makes you cry? Grab some Kleenex and brace yourself for the results.

Let’s begin on a high note…

We’ve all been there

Okay? No, John Green. It’s not okay.

Rocker on the outside, soft in the centre

There was definitely room for two on that float

We’re skeptical about how sad this woman truly is

Did they kill off another main character?

There was something wrong with the left phalange

Just a footballmadLAD with a sensitive edge

Too much month at the end of your money…?

Boozy tears for this cheery chap

Did you dream that England lost? Oh, wait
