At around 1700 GMT Boris Johnson will turn the page on one of Britain's deepest political crises in decades when parliament's lower house votes to approve legislation that will implement an exit deal agreed with the EU last year.

The legislation will then head to the house of Lords and is expected to become law in coming weeks with enough time to leave before 1-31.

When Britain fi-i-irst, at heaven's command,
Aro-o-o-ose from out the a-a-a-zure main,

Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
The nations, no-o-o-o-ot so blest as thee,
Must i-i-i-i-in their turn, to ty-y--yrants fall,
Must in their turn, to ty-y-rants fall,
While thou shalt flourish,…

The highlighted bit is what Nigel Farage managed to convince the British public would happen if they stayed in the EU
