MPs backed Boris Johnson’s Brexit bill by 52% to 48% and you honestly couldn’t make this stuff up

MPs have voted in favour of a Brexit withdrawal bill for the first time with a vote of 329 to 299 – or 52 per cent to 48 per cent.

If that sounds familiar, it’s because that is the same percentage results of the 2016 referendum, and the irony hasn’t escaped people.

The vote approves the prime minister’s Withdrawal Agreement Bill (WAB) in principle, though it kills off Boris’s plan to push it through Parliament, which means leaving by Halloween is likely to be derailed.

You can’t make this stuff up.

People called the ratio a "glitch in the Matrix" and honestly, same.

And some are getting cabin fever.
