Joe Lycett celebrates Brexit as another government climbdown is likely to annoy Brexiters.
Joe Lycett ‘celebrates’ Brexit
In his latest stunt, the comedian and BIG fan of Liz Truss, Joe Lycett made a Brexit urinal to ‘celebrate the success’ of leaving the EU.
He wrote: “Introducing the new Brexit Urinal™ (just for us lads) celebrating the great success of Brexit!!! Just finalised with the PR team that our brand slogan is going to be ‘if you love it so much, why don’t you p**s on it?’ which I couldn’t agree more with!!!!!
“Thanks to Tom Martin of Weatherspons [Tim Martin of Wetherspoons] who has also agreed to replace all the p**sers in his pubs with them and the public will be able to buy them exclusively in branches of next and some select ann summers.”
Another climbdown
The UK will retain the EU’s product safety mark indefinitely, in the latest climbdown from proposed post-Brexit changes, reports The Guardian.
Stephen Phipson, the chief executive of Make UK said it was “a pragmatic and commonsense decision that manufacturers will very much welcome and support”.
He added: “This announcement will help safeguard the competitiveness of manufacturers and aid the UK as a destination for investment. It should bring more confidence about doing business in the UK and recognises the need to work with the reality of doing business.”
The business minister Kevin Hollinrake said: “By extending CE-marking use across the UK, firms can focus their time and money on creating jobs and growing the economy.”
