Everyone is stealing TV
"You wouldn't steal a handbag. You wouldn't steal a car. You wouldn't steal a baby. You wouldn't shoot a policeman. And then steal his helmet. You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet.

Considering that pre-Brexit the UK was contributing around £10b per year to the EU, then (depending on what it actuslly buys, of course) it's a bargain.
