The Telegraph had written 300 words and hit the publish button before they realised that a tweet from ‘Philip May’ about his conference suit was sent by a parody account. According to their report:

Philip May, husband of Prime Minister Theresa May, has taken to Twitter to reveal the outfit he wore to join his wife on stage at the Conservative Party conference is “model’s own”… Philip May has broken with this tradition, which has previously been criticised as sexist, and drew attention to it with a quip on social media. The Prime Minister’s husband wrote on Twitter: “Thank you for the kind words about my appearance at conference today. My suit – for those who asked – was from my wardrobe!”

Except he didn’t, the tweet was sent by an account clearly marked ‘parody’. The Telegraph article has now been deleted and lost down the memory hole forever. You can still read a cached version here…
