Don’t tell Boris you read these 29 lockdown memes on your second jog of the day

Last night, in what was the most viewed TV moment of the 2010s, Boris Johnson in so many words announced the UK is going into lockdown to prevent the spread of coronavirus. We might only be allowed out to exercise once a day and to the shops to get essentials, but we can laugh at memes all we want – so the following lockdown memes can be enjoyed as much as you desire.

Twitter responded to the announcement the only way it knows how – lockdown memes came in thick and fast, and despite there being nationwide panic and fear, we can always rely on the internet to help us come together and still share a laugh.

Here are the best lockdown memes we have to offer, enjoy them and laugh, you deserve it.
