Default Thus spake a kipper...

I've tended to think kippers are evil or mad. This falls into the mad

A 'Vote to leave' leaflet posted through my door from Gerard Batten,
UKIP MEP for London.

Under 'how much does EU membership cost' :-

'The total combined cost (direct and indirect) have been calculated
as about £190 billion per annum'

That is approximately how much the UK government gets in income tax
revenue per year.

So I've got a new slogan for UKIP.

Vote to leave the EU, and UKIP will abolish income tax.

You just know it makes sense...


Dave, if we happen to vote leave, you're gonna be hellish bitter and
twisted


And, in a few years time, everybody'll be standing around, wondering
why things aren't all swimmingly rosy... The opposite, in fact. But who
to blame now?


You mean if we stay in the EU and a wake of Turks depress wages even
more?


sigh How about we try not to divert everything into some kind of
distopian fantasy world, just for a minute, just for once, unless you're
actively trying to prove Dave's point in his first sentence?
