Theresa May threatened that Brexit might not end up happening and everyone made the same joke

Theresa May threatened that Brexit might not end up happening and everyone made the same joke

It looks ever more unlikely that Theresa May’s embattled Brexit deal is going to make it through the House of Commons when MPs vote this week.

In a last ditch attempt to drum up support for the deal on her own benches, the PM gave a speech in which she said that, if her deal isn’t voted through, Brexit may be unlikely to happen.

May said that there may be a “paralysis” in parliament which could stop Brexit happening altogether.

But there’s one glaringly obvious issue – not everyone wants Brexit in the first place.

Remainers immediately took to social media to mock May's threat, wondering how they'd possibly recover from no Brexit at all.
