The UK is on the brink of a no-deal Brexit with Theresa May struggling to convince Members of Parliament to back her deal with the EU.
A UK government webpage crashed after hundreds of thousands of people signed a petition calling for Brexit to be reversed.
An influx of people jumped to sign it following a night of political chaos as the Prime Minister turned on MPs in an impassioned speech to the nation on Wednesday night. The website for the petition briefly appeared to have crashed shortly after 9am - showing only an error message but was later reinstated."We need to put a stop to this claim by proving the strength of public support now, for remaining in the EU. A People's Vote may not happen — so vote now."
She blamed MPs for failing to agree a means to implement the result of the 2016 referendum and said she believes voters just want this stage of the Brexit process to be over.
