Since there isn’t really that much we can actually find in the 12 pages published, why don’t we cut to the chase and give you some of the best memes we found among the current flood of content taking over social media?
We know Twitter can be a nasty place but sometimes people come together for a singular cause: lols.

More accurate.
Sue Gray’s report is so bland, could she not have done some word art?

There’s always one.
It's not quite as cathartic as I'd hoped. Johnson's like one of those birds you see washed up in an oil spill. Clearly fucked but still hard to get hold of.

Kirsty makes a good point, to be fair:
I'm not sure it's great news for Boris Johnson that Sue Gray only released twelve pages in which she was banned from saying anything meaningful and she still manages to make clear that she thinks he's a dick
