    Is this the same Tim Martin (soon to be Tory/UKIP/BF/BNP leader) who has said that his pubs are putting prices up, even though he says things are going to be cheaper? It's almost like he's spun himself Brexit-dizzy.

    You know that Australia isn't reliant on the UK/EU for all its food supplies? I realise you might imagine that the British Empire still exists and all commonwealth countries must buy everything from us, but it's not like that.

    The best is always the comments at the bottom:

    DEEPS74 says:
    When I think my hate for the EU and its acolytes has reached a peak they come along and fuel my hatred of them even further.
    Yes DEEP the EU have put one over on you, have a nice day.

    Lots of comments deleted no doubt because of the the expletives.

    That was a remarkably balanced article, I didnt actually realise it was the Express untill I got to the bottom of the page and saw the clickbait adverts and hysterical headline about the HoL.
