Deputy Speaker Lindsay Hoyle told off the group of Europhilic SNP MPs

Smug Scottish nationalists began whistling and singing “Ode to Joy” by Beethoven – the anthem of the Brussels bloc – during the vote to trigger the EU exit starting gun in the House of Commons.

North Ayrshire and Arran MP Patricia Gibson led the Remoaner choir as other Members cast their votes on the Government’s Bill to trigger Article 50.

But Deputy Speaker Lindsay Hoyle launched a booming shout of “order” across the chamber.

The gaggle of Europhilic MPs were immediately shut up, with Mr Hoyle explaining that he did not want other groups to start singing.

He told the SNP MPs: “I personally don’t mind singing but I certainly can’t allow it in the chamber.

“Because before we know it, we could be hearing other tunes and I don’t want to get into that.”

Mr Hoyle quickly restored order to the house

Brexit Secretary David Davis described the vote as “historic” and denied it was “railroaded”.

He added: “We've seen a historic vote tonight – a big majority for getting on with negotiating our exit from the EU and a strong, new partnership with its member states.

"It has been a serious debate, a healthy debate, with contributions from MPs representing all parts of the UK, and I respect the strong views on all sides.

"The decision on EU membership has been made by the people we serve. It is now time for everyone, whichever way they voted in the referendum, to unite to make a success of the important task at hand for our country.”
