Hooray. The PM has finally accepted that ā€˜youth mobility is not freedom of movement.’ A visa-based scheme is not a concession to the EU but a huge opportunity for young people on both sides of the Channel to live, study, work and love in another culture! thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

Guy nails grifter: ā€œthe biggest waste of money in the EU is the salary we all pay to Mr Farage. Let’s be honest about it, you are a member of the fisheries committee for example and you’re never there. Never. In 2011, no attendance. In 2012, no attendanceā€
