BORIS Johnson yesterday vowed to stop paying his TV licence fee until BBC bosses come clean over an edited Donald Trump speech. Does that mean he will be fined and prosecuted like the rest of us?

Consider this for a moment: a British MP is reportedly taking direct calls from the American President to coordinate attacks on the BBC — our national broadcaster, and a rival to Farage’s main employer, GB News. It’s deeply troubling.

The right has a long agenda of national treasures that it wants to trash (it even tried to crush the National Trust). Its patriotism is highly selective and phenomenally perverse, its targets often running against the grain of public opinion.

Anna Turley, "How have we got to this situation? We've seen so much chronic underfunding"
She's 100% right
So as well as already having underfunded public services, we'll continue to have underfunded public services, because we can't afford to fund them because of Brexit

Fascinating that this is the issue that Mr Davey and the LDs have focussed on.
A comprehensive CU would be a big achievement for the UK. But it is not like membership or even the single market.
If the UK were to do this, it should ask to come under Europe's suite of trade deals
