Drug buddies: Will Boris Johnson hand over any cash saved on Brexit to Donald Trump for substandard US medicines?

This short Twitter dialogue says it all.

A hundred years or so ago, back during the EU referendum campaign, Brexiteers tried to fool us into thinking the UK would save £350 million a week – and all of the money could be diverted into funding the National Health Service.

I suppose they thought it was a very funny joke, especially when it fooled so many of us into supporting the ‘Leave’ option.

(Apparently it might have been a different story, had more of our population been better-educated. What does that say about ‘Leave’ voters.)

Now it’s a matter of days until they have to make good on their offer.

Rachael Swindon pointed this out on Twitter – with a sharp observation on the validity of the original promise.

And Karen Owen’s response makes clear where she thinks the cash will go.

Oh, was the referendum campaign only four years ago? Sorry – I guess it just seems like this farce has been going on forever.

Have YOU donated to my crowdfunding appeal, raising funds to fight false libel claims by TV celebrities who should know better? These court cases cost a lot of money so every penny will help ensure that wealth doesn’t beat justice.
