Shed a tear for these 24 quality tier announcement memes

Matt Hancock announced the new tier system for when we come out of lockdown earlier today. And unless you’re living in Cornwall, the Isle of Wight or the Isles of Scilly, you’re basically screwed and can only see your mates if you sitting outside in a freezing pub garden. And that’s only Tier 2 of course. But hey at least we have some quality tier memes to get us through it.

Unsurprisingly the government website crashed with everyone trying to find their tier, which has resulted in some quality memes. It’s not only the website failing memes, but also the feeling of being in the Hunger Games and I’m A Celeb has produced some very funny memes.

They are literally the only positive thing about this announcement so we’re going to have run with it people.

Here are the 24 funniest tier memes to laugh at whilst you cry:

1. Soz Manchester

2. The accuracy

Today’s the day, #tiersystem will be getting announced. At this point it kind of feels like a game show… I’m just imagining lottery balls with all the county names on or Ant and Dec saying “Preston… it’s not you!”

Fingers crossed for us all anyway 🤞🏻 pic.twitter.com/3psrfslU2e

4. Lower, always lower

You’ve got…. LONDON. It’s a Tier 2, so it’s a middle tier. Tricky.

So next, Higher or Lower than London? #tiersystem pic.twitter.com/xCEXb9TBq9
