Man finds General Election campaign has 'gone too far' after unexpected Tinder like

As Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced the upcoming General Election in July, social media platforms were flooded with memes poking fun at the political landscape. From the humorous "soggy Sunak" announcement speech to the UK Labour Party's playful TikTok videos, the online world was abuzz with election-related content.

However, amidst the sea of campaign tactics, one unexpected platform made its way into the mix – the popular dating app Tinder. A British man, known as Oliver on X under the username @Pyrrrhos, found himself at the center of a viral moment when he received a peculiar like on the app.

Oliver was taken aback when he received a notification from Tinder, informing him that someone named "Rishi" had liked his profile. The notification urged him to "Act fast to see if they're a match," leaving Oliver puzzled by this unusual campaign outreach.

Taking to social media to share his amusement, Oliver jokingly remarked, "This campaign outreach has gone too far." His witty comment quickly gained traction online, garnering over 36,000 likes as users joined in on the humor.

While the likelihood of the like coming from the Prime Minister himself is slim, the playful banter surrounding the incident continued to entertain online audiences. Comments flooded in, with one user humorously stating, "Bro will do anything for a vote," while another quipped, "Not another eat out to help out campaign, surely."

Following the announcement of the General Election on July 4, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak emphasized the importance of Britain choosing its future during a speech outside No10 Downing Street. Despite the serious nature of the announcement, the online world found humor in coining a new term for the election – the "Genny Lex," sparking mixed reactions among the public.

With viral memes and playful jabs adding a light-hearted touch to the political discourse, the General Election campaign continues to unfold with unexpected twists and turns. As Brits navigate through the campaign season, the fusion of humor and politics on platforms like Tinder only adds to the unique charm of the electoral process.
