John Oliver’s brilliant take on Theresa May’s Brexit deal is banned in the UK so here it is for your viewing pleasure
Here’s the brilliant John Oliver giving his take on Brexit, which couldn’t be shown in the UK because of a ban on using footage from the floor of the House of Commons (or Lords) for satirical purposes.
Seriously.
Anyway, thanks to Femi on Twitter you can still watch it and it really is worth 2 minutes of your time.
This is the John Oliver footage they didn't air in the UK for reasons so stupid I'm going to have to just let him explain in the tweet below. pic.twitter.com/PivKh5CinB

We couldn’t show our recent Brexit segment in the UK thanks to their ban on using footage from Parliament. But with a little help from @RealGilbert, we came up with a solution.https://t.co/A0GCYh80pX
