The latest controversy in the UK
The National Trust posted a promotion for a Mother's Day cream tea
They included a picture of said cream tea
The venue is in Cornwall. A Cornish cream tea has the jam below the cream
The picture they posted had the jam above the cream, which is a Devonshire cream tea
This has caused widespread outrage

@troubleMoney
Every day I find a new thing to make me embarrassed and ashamed to be English
