This chilling Valentine’s Day message from the Home Office has resurfaced.
From the “Go Home” billboard vans to the “hostile environment” policy, there are many moments during Theresa May’s time as home secretary that have come back to haunt her. And now a threatening Valentine's Day message tweeted by the Home Office in 2013 has resurfaced on Twitter, which has drawn a lot of criticism. The tweet reads:#Rosesareredvioletsareblue if your marriage is a sham we’ll be on to you#happyvalentinesday.

But others have clapped back by coming up with their own poems mocking Theresa May and the Home Office.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
