Nigel Farage? A "three time cover model for 'Punchable Face' magazine."

Boris Johnson? A "shaved orangutan with Owen Wilson's hair." 

John Oliver doesn't pull punches in the wake of the EU's referendum. He starts saying he's not as happy by David Cameron's resignation as he should be. 

“It’s like catching an ice cream cone out of the air, because a child was hit by a car,” he says with his typical wit. 

After a reference to a certain dead pig's mouth, Oliver goes on fact-checking claims from the Leave campaign. He also explains the controversy surrounding Article 50 -- the procedure that governs how a member state leaves the EU.
