    Another remainer breaking the law

    Oh Dear first its spending too much on leaflets now its illegal adverts typical Remoaaners.

    Laurence Taylor who took out EU referendum advert in Metro newspaper fined £4k | Metro News


    A man who took out a Metro newspaper ad to counter ‘scare stories’ during the EU referendum campaign has been fined £4,000.

    Laurence Taylor’s advert was published a day before the June 23 vote and was meant to correct ‘lies’ about immigration.

    But he has now been penalised for failing to follow rules after the Electorial Commission sanctioned him for not putting a required imprint on the pie chart ad, which compared net annual immigration to the size of the UK population as a whole.

    All materials relating to the referendum were required to have had the name of the person who printed it, the commissioner, and both their addresses.
    I suppose its as valid as a parking ticket eh boys?

                Are you saying Turkey will never join the EU? They seem to really want to.

                    Brexiteers don't seem to understand the concept of the present tense.

                    Serious point: I remember the day of the referendum seeing the front pages with "VOTE LEAVE!" on the front. Why was that even allowed? I thought there were rules about what the press could and couldn't do on polling day.
