Today, Theresa May stood before the Commons to update MPs on the state of the Brexit process. At this critical juncture in the negotiations and in her career, the Prime Minister tried to convey a solemn and statesmanlike appearance as she spoke about her dealings with the European Union.
Unfortunately for her, the statesmanlike approach probably wasn’t helped by some rather on the nose heckling from the Labour benches. As May outlined the roadblocks she faced in Europe:
‘But Mr Speaker, two problems remain’
One cheeky Labour MP shouted:
‘Boris!’
Judging by the ashen faces on the Conservative front benches, it seems like May thinks the Boris joke is wearing thin.
