Famous people mocking David Cameron’s serious phone picture on Twitter is the funniest thing you’ll see today
Oh David, you can’t say you didn’t have this one coming to you…
Considering how big Twitter has become and how important it is as a communication tool, it’s understandable that the most powerful public figures in the world are eager to maintain an active Twitter profile to keep in touch with the people and show that they are up to date with modern methods of interaction and so forth.
They should also know, however, that members of the Twitterati will take no prisoners when an opportunity arises to take the piss, as it did when David Cameron last night posted this almost Partridge-esque photo to illustrate that he was in dialogue with Barack Obama over the current crisis in Ukraine.
I've been speaking to @BarackObama about the situation in Ukraine. We are united in condemnation of Russia's actions. pic.twitter.com/7Rk2k8iOIK

What followed was absolutely priceless, with the likes of Graham Linehan, Patrick Stewart and Rob Delaney amongst those who, in the most appropriate phrase under the circumstances, weren’t about to let the Prime Minister off the hook…
