In case you haven’t heard, Caroline Lucas is the newly crowned queen of Twitter clap backs.
It all started when Katie Hopkins tweeted that the Green MP spoke for “vegan lesbians” during the Westminster debate about Donald Trump’s state visit to the UK.
Caroline Lucas spoke for vegan lesbians of Brighton hoping to deny Trump a state visit because he likes burgers https://t.co/W8NiNpUiN5

Lucas decided to respond by providing her with a more informative list of others she speaks for.
Lesbians. Vegans. Bi people. Gay people. Trans people. People of colour + everyone else! It's Modern Britain @KTHopkins, get over it. https://t.co/QSnG0a05Nj

Then, when Hopkins reiterated the same sentiment as her first tweet, Lucas replied with a simple yet oh so sassy ‘U OK hun?’
