10 farming tweets on the shock election result

Farmers have given a colourful reaction on Twitter to the shock general election result which ended in a hung parliament.

Some farmers have expressed disappointment in how prime minister Theresa May led her campaign and called for her resignation.

Nevertheless, Mrs May is visiting the Queen at Buckingham Palace on Friday (9 June) to ask for permission to form a minority government with the Democratic Unionist Party. 

Meanwhile, other farmers say they cannot bear to see any more election coverage and have decided to leave the UK for a holiday.

May talks of stability; her party instigated the referendum, she invoked art 50, she called a snap election, her party created instability.
