Seeing as Britain has now left the European Union, you’d think that Brexit supporters blaming everything under the sun on our neighbours would have stopped by now.

But of course you’d be very, very wrong.

Brexiteers are apparently livid that Storm Jorge – which is currently battering the UK – doesn’t have a more "British" name.

According to some tweets, posted by Virgin Media News reporter Richard Chambers, people are livid that the storm, which was named by the Spanish Met Office, doesn’t have a “proper” British name like John, James or Janet.

Don’t believe us? Here’s the evidence…

It looks like people are so xenophobic now that they can't even handle foreign weather.

British storms for British people, appare​ntly.
