Since January 1993 there have been 27 other countries not in the EU that have done better than the UK at exporting goods into the single market.
Boris Johnson
I dont see why people are so snooty about Channel Five. It has some respectable documentaries about the Second World War. It also devotes considerable airtime to investigations into lap-dancing, and other related and vital subjects
