Thousands of supporters and protesters of Thursday's Brexit vote have taken to Twitter to voice their views in a very British manner - poetry.

With more than 18,000 tweets so far, #WriteAPoemAboutBrexit is trending, with people sharing their rhyming ditties to either explain their concerns about the UK's withdrawal from the EU - or to explain why they voted to leave.

Arguments over immigration, the economy, and the controversial £350 million figure emblazoned across the Vote Leave campaign's battle bus.
