could run it as a caption competition

"June the 9th - and there goes Jeremy Corbyn, vapourised."

"Theresa May has a glass of Cloudy Bay and.....wooosh"

[DTCwordfan]

seriously, it's a classic lenticular cloud, (Altocumulus lenticularis) and they are stationary lens-shaped clouds that form in the troposphere, usually perpendicular to the wind direction.
