Sometimes we can say more without words. One student in England spoke volumes with a single eye roll.
Harriet Ellis, a student at the University of Birmingham had a prime seat for Channel 4's Brexit debate "What The Nation Really Thinks," when Nigel Farage of the UK Independence Party began to speak. Farage was defending the position on Brexit that "leave means leave," when Ellis had heard enough and expressed with her eyes what many were thinking.
The epic eye roll went viral.
