People around the world have been up all night following the results of the referendum as they flood in hourly.

Many expected the Leave campaign to lose, but against all expectations, they won.

The devastating Brexit vote to leave the EU has had serious consequences already on the British public with many fearing for the future of their families and children to come.

What have the people of the UK done to pick up the pieces? Plan to go to work… Except for one British citizen, where a troupe of angry cyclists have emerged, blocking his way.

That’s what happened to Boris Johnson this morning, who had been campaigning for the United Kingdom to leave the European Union, and managed to get what he wanted.

By the looks of things, he was trying to travel at exactly the same time as a load of cyclists who voted Remain, who parked their bikes on the road and refused to move.

Onlookers then started to swear at Johnson’s car, and the whole thing was caught on video.

During a live Sky News broadcast, a cyclist let his feelings for Boris Johnson be known:

A story was doing the rounds yesterday in which a member of the public claimed to have been on the London Underground with Boris Johnson, and said the former London mayor had conceded defeat in the referendum.

Maybe Johnson should have tried to get the underground to work this morning.
