A common meme of the mid-2010s, most popular in the UK, from the Scottish dialect of "your dad", which involves someone making statements on a news story through the eyes of a stereotypically right-wing, conservative, reactionary middle aged British man, increasingly baffled and angry at the modern world. Particular targets for this baffled anger are political correctness and things young people of today like.
"Yer da says he's not racist because he likes curry"

"Yer da says students are all scruffy smelly spongers who need a good wash, and they only vote Jeremy Corbyn because he'll give them free stuff they can't pay back"

"Yer da doesn't like the Premier League and all these fancy foreign players diving and dabbing. He watches Rugby Union because it's a REAL SPORT for REAL MEN."

"Yer da liked the new Wonder Woman film but he wonders if he can meet a woman who'll get in the kitchen and make him a sandwich."

"Yer da isn't homophobic but can't be doing with this gay kiss on Eastenders, kids are watching"
