Queen's 'Purring' Over Scottish Referendum Met By Humour, Disbelief And Scorn on Twitter

Cameron says the Queen ‘purred’ on the phone. Are we sure he didn’t call George Galloway? #wouldyoulikemetobethecat

"I am so relieved, Mr Cameron", the Queen purred softly, alive with regal joy.

He was strong, silent. He was still her Prime Minister.

So the Queen purred down the line at lies keeping her subjects in food bank queues & many children being robbed of a free education. 😔😿

The Queen "purred down line" at Cameron over Scotland. George Galloway purred at Rula Lenska over on Channel 4. Oh how the other half live.

The Queen 'purred down the phone' to David Cameron when he told her it was a no vote. I've just been sick in my mouth.
