13 hilarious hot takes on the latest Brexit vote
Well, in a surprise to absolutely nobody, the Government’s Brexit deal was voted down again, leaving a croaky and terrifyingly calm Theresa May to table a motion for today that would allow the House of Commons to remove a No Deal Brexit as an option – temporarily, which is a bit like having a reversible vaccine – “No, you won’t be able to get measles, but only until June, when you’ll probably get all the measles in the world, overnight.”
Twitter weighed in on the whole shitshow, with these witticisms.

Imagine how silly we'd all feel if somebody suddenly pointed out that the referendum was only advisory and this gargantuan shambles is entirely unnecessary. #brexitvote
