Which of course is not what she said at all, just more brexshit lies. TW

Have you read the article? There is a straw poll on the advantages/disadvantages of the UK's EU membership. One of the questions asked is about favourable mobile roaming rates - in among questions about the economy and immigration. I'm surprised they didn't include a vote on your favourite Smartie colour.

Actually the channel is on DAB in London. this and many other interesting bits on there. However it seems to me to be a bit of a sensationalist channel at times There was an interview with a guy I've never heard of this morning who spoke so fast I had trouble understanding him. Brian

Where did you make that up from? Do you really want the UK to gain an advantage by making it unsafe for the workers or by lowering food standards or any of the other things third world counties have that keep wages low?

Don't brexitters want higher pay and think the EU is holding it down?

The real paragraph that you glossed over is quite interesting..

?Leaving the EU naturally comes at a price if you aren?t ready to accept the four freedoms of the single market,? she said. ?It looks like Britain isn?t ready to accept the free movement of people. So one needs to look at how to balance that out.?

It is exactly what she said, just rephrased to make the point.

That is *exactly* what the likes of Turnip wants.
