The internet has begun to mock Theresa May following a remarkable Commons defeat yesterday evening in which more than 400 MPs voted against her Brexit package.
Hundreds of Twitter users were able to see the funny side of the historical defeat and the Prime Minister's subsequent no confidence vote in her leadership.
The majority of 230 was by far the biggest on record, higher than the 166 defeat for the Labour majority government in 1924. Cheering could be heard by crowds of protesters gathered outside Parliament as the news filtered out.
One person on Twitter joked she was going to go to the cinema but then said she remembered the vote and chose to stay at home screaming at the telly.

Tensions were at fever pitch earlier in the day as protesters for both the Remain and Leave sides gathered outside the House of Commons in preparation for the all-important vote last night.
Outside of Westminster, non-league side Boreham Wood FC even penned a 1,400 word statement on Brexit entitled 'MPs do your duty' and celebrities and musicians also gave their views.
The beginning of the statement, posted on the club's website says: 'The United Kingdom voted to exit the European Union, and if democracy in all our four Countries within our union is to work and thrive, then the majority have spoken.
'It must be remembered, we elect our politicians to go to Westminster, and their job as they enter the Houses of Parliament is in the main to work for their constituents – that’s the reality of how our democracy works.'
The out-of-the-blue article goes on to argue that MPs 'must get ready to unite the whole of the UK by working night and day on a new Brexit deal, starting Wednesday morning, or be prepared to walk away with a no deal in July.'
Needless to say the view from social media users was mixed with some calling it 'weird' and a number of others saying they should 'stick to football.'
