As MPs were battling it out over Brexit again last night, a man summed up the nation's mood when he fell off his bike into a river during a live television broadcast.

The BBC News broadcast from Edinburgh was reporting on how Scotland could seek a new independence vote following a potential election.

In footage shared on social media, a hooded man slowly cycles behind the presenter, before appearing to lose his balance.

Today, MP's will attempt to block a no-deal Brexit today after they voted to seize control the Commons.
