Jeremy Corbyn got the date of the PM's historic Brexit defeat wrong - as he made a stuttering pitch for Number Ten today.
The Labour leader went to the Tory marginal seat of Hastings to try to turn the screw on Theresa May by pouring scorn on her Brexit plan and making his own bid for power.
But he fumbled over his words and struggled to turn the pages of his speech as he gave his speech on Brexit this morning.
Opening his speech with a blunder, he said: 'Yesterday the Prime Minister suffered the most devastating defeat in parliament on the most important issue facing our country.
'The central policy of her government has been decisively rejected.'
The historic vote - the most important taken by Parliament since the Second World War - was in fact on Tuesday.
Mrs May's blueprint was overwhelmingly rejected as 432 MPs voted against it and just 202 back her plan. It was the biggest defeat ever inflicted on a British Prime Minister.
Mr Corbyn blundered through his speech as he repeated his call for another election as he repeated his vow to get into No10.

The Labour leader ploughed on with his speech, but he stuttered and fumbled his way through the words written in front of him - visibly pausing as he turned the pages.
Tony Blair slams Jeremy Corbyn for snubbing the PM's offer of Brexit talks
Tony Blair (pictured today in London) accused Jeremy Corbyn of trying to dodge the thorny issue of Brexit
Tony Blair today joined condemnation of Jeremy Corbyn for refusing to hold Brexit talks with the PM.
Mr Blair said it was wrong for the Opposition leader to snub a meeting with the premier at a 'moment of national crisis'.
The Labour former PM accused Mr Corbyn of deliberately avoiding engagement on Brexit.
'If, in a moment of national crisis, the Prime Minister asks the Leader of the Opposition to come and talk, of course he should,' he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
He added: 'At some point he is going to have to make his position clear,' he said. 'It is quite hard to read the runes sometimes in Labour policy right now, but, as I understand, our position is that if the no confidence motion fails, as it has, then there is an overwhelming majority for supporting putting this back to the people.'
Mr Corbyn has been slammed for snubbing an invite to sit down with the Prime Minister for talks to come up with a new plan for Brexit.
Mrs May offered the olive branch last night after she survived a confidence vote tabled by the Labour leader in his bid to oust her.
But Mr Corbyn rebuffed the offer - refusing to even sit down with talks unless the PM took no deal Brexit off the table.
MPs have queued up to condemn his choice - pointing out that he has sat down with members of the IRA and Hamas bit refused to sit down for talks with the PM at a moment of national crisis for the country.
But speaking this morning, Mr Corbyn stuck to his guns - insisting that he would not talk with the PM until she radically changes her strategy.
He said: 'Last night's offer for talks with party leaders turned out to be simply a stunt - not a serious attempt to to engage with that the new reality.
'No sooner had she said the words in Parliament than the government confirmed that she would not take no deal off the table.
'With no deal on the table the Prime Minister will enter phony talks just to try to run down the clock and blackmail MPs....by threatening the country with no deal chaos.'
He risked infuriating his Remain-backing MPs by refusing to immediately endorse a second referendum.
Instead he said Labour wants a general election - and indicated that Labour will table more votes of no confidence in the Government as he doges making a choice on a second public vote.
Although he repeated Labour party policy that 'all options' are on the table.
On holding more no confidence votes, he said: 'We will come back on it again if necessary because we are determined...to give people the choice about who their MP should be.
'In the meantime all options are on the table, we are serious about finding a way through.

'If the government remains intransigent...and the country is facing the potential disaster of no deal then our duty will be to look at the options set out in our conference motion - including that of a public vote.'
Mr Corbyn has faced a storm of criticism from MPs - including Labour backbenchers - for refusing the PM's offer of talks.
And this morning Tony Blair also attacked his decision, saying it is wrong to make the snub at a 'moment of national crisis'.
The Labour former PM accused Mr Corbyn of deliberately avoiding engagement on Brexit.
'If, in a moment of national crisis, the Prime Minister asks the Leader of the Opposition to come and talk, of course he should,' he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
