SNP's Joanna Cherry appears to mouth 'f****** Labour' in reaction to Brexit vote

Scottish National Party MP Joanna Cherry's reaction to the Brexit vote last night has caused quite the stir.

A video clip posted to Twitter captured the moment Ms Cherry appeared to mouth 'f***ing Labour ' as the Speaker announced the results of the indicative votes on the UK's exit from the EU.

The short clip has gathered over 69,900 views on Twitter , with 2,675 likes and nearly a thousand retweets.

Posted by SNP member Alexandra McArthur, she captioned it: "Tonight we are all Joanna Cherry.

"My sentiments exactly."

But Twitter users lip-reading Ms Cherry's reaction read things differently.

One said: "I had been wondering what that was she said, knew it was 'f******...something'."

Another wrote: "I heard 'f****** Cameron'."

One said: "It's 'f****** shambles'. How does everyone lipread 'Labour'?"

Brexit indicative vote results in FULL: How MPs voted on options for UK's future

MPs voted on eight possible solutions after dramatically seizing control of parliamentary business.

But they rejected a customs union, a second referendum and quitting without a deal.

They ruled out no-deal by 160 votes to 400, majority 240; a customs union by 272 votes to 264, majority eight; and a second referendum 295 to 268, majority 27.

Earlier, MPs voted by 441 to 105, majority 336, to extend Article 50 - delaying Britain’s departure beyond the schedule date of Friday.

The Prime Minister's deal gained the support of 242 MPs the second time it was voted on.

We will leave on May 12 if MPs back the Prime Minister’s deal, or April 12 if we exit without a pact.
