<b>Guy Fawkes was a dangerous Brexiteer who wanted to blow up Parliament in case it blocked Britain's exit from Europe, it emerged today.</b>

Mr Fawkes was furious when he learnt MPs would now vote before the Government invoked Article 50 - and decided it was best to blow the House of Commons to pieces instead.



The 35-year-old, who was born in York but has a holiday home in Suffolk, told pals: "This is an outrageous decision by the courts - there will be fireworks."

But his cunning plot was thwarted when a Remain-voting shopkeeper became suspicious when Mr Fawkes asked to buy 1,000 kilograms of gunpowder.

Anti-terrorist police raided his terraced house and arrested him before seizing 100 rockets, 50 Catherine wheels, 75 bangers and some sparklers.

<b>'Bang'</b>

A police spokesman said: "It was a deadly cache capable of making any early November evening go off with a bang. Mr Fawkes may have wanted to leave Europe as soon as possible, but blowing up Parliament is no way to make that happen sooner."

Government officials were delighted the so-called Gunpowder Plot had been foiled. Lorraine Fisher, 34, a spokesperson for Prime Minister Theresa May, said: "Brexit has raised tensions in the country, and we cannot risk having a Civil War on our hands. Everyone needs to calm down."

Ms Fisher said that to celebrate a new era of togetherness, the country would celebrate Mr Fawkes' arrest with a pyrotechnic display on November 5.
