This right proper bloke is an MP and representative of anti-EU sentiment in Britain.
Too bad, factually, our bright, bright lad is pathetically wrong on the facts. The UK got more money than any other country in Europe through the Marshall plan (26% of the total for all Europe), more than double West Germany.

FWIW
by Colin KalmbacherRalph Northam is facing a groundswell of calls for his resignation after it was revealed on Friday night that his medical school yearbook page featured a photograph of two men dressed up in racist blackface and Ku Klux Klan costumes. Northam has, so far, resisted all calls to vacate his office.

Someone in the White House leaked Trump's private schedules for the past 3 months to Axios. On average he spends over half of every day (nearly 60%) in "Executive Time". Though the schedules say hes in the Oval Office, at least 6 sources inside the White House say he's never in the Oval before 11 AM (and that's easily verifiable by seeing if there's a guard visible on the outside of the building).
What's "Executive Time"? Well, if his Twitter feed didn't make it obvious, that's the President's top responsibility of watching tv, glancing at major newspapers, and phoning friends to ask "how am i doin?".
There's an excellent graph showing just how much of every day is given over to "Executive Time" and how much it dominates the President's overall schedule.
