Wetherspoons’ Tim Martin made a Brexit price cut and it’s an entirely predictable self-own
Brexit loving Wetherspoons owner Tim Martin has announced a 20p cut in the price of a pint to show just how easy it will be to cut costs when the UK leaves the European Union.

Yeah, go Brexit!
Except, er, these are the only 4 response you need to that.
Oh hello again Tim Martin. We’re still in the EU so still in the Customs Union. You have just admitted you were able to reduce prices regardless https://t.co/zRLBqfcH3u

But we’ve not left the Customs Union. Tim Martin is cutting 20p from a pint because his huge fortune can sustain the losses to spread misinformation. Feels like an apt summation of British politics in 2019 https://t.co/x55klvYKVU

So we don’t need to leave the EU to have cheaper beer.
Thanks for confirming.
