Brexit on radio (was LHH on 28 Apr 2019

Yes I've heard them at times mentioning brexit since it all started years ago but not as much as all the legal stations in the UK ie BBC etc, who are on about it all day every day, either in news or a talking topic, with phone ins.
I have never heard any talk about drugs on Laser, I have heard them talking about drink though.

I remember hearing a Laser DJ talk about legalising Marijuana

Regarding Brexit Repetitive Syndrome on the airwaves, legal or pirate, the film "Groundhog day" (1993) comes to mind with Bill Murray.....

This will go on until we have left the EU and it will be groundhog day until then. You can blame our Prime Minister for that with her awful 'deal' and so many MPs for trying to stop brexit , that's why its not done and dusted by now....

Here in China, locals who follow international politics look down very much on the turmoil in the British parliament.

When the current foreign secretary visited Beijing and introduced his Chinese wife as a Japanese lady to the Chinese cadres, the Chinese media had a feeding frenzy.

I was hauled over the coals by the local public security, 3 days of interviews with my Chinese wife present, and at last I was forced to sign and fingerprint about 25 letters of apology, because my new passport's starting date was prior to the expiry date of my old one, and I had exceeded the 10-day period to visit them to get my new residence permit. I couldn't avoid this time delay because my new passport was issued in the UK and then sent by courier service to Beijing, where I collected it after rail travel to the sloppy outsourced agent there acting for HMPO. When I initially applied for my new passport in Beijing, my old passport was returned to me intact!

I think Peter Moore has the credentials to be PM = Prime Minister.

Good to see he has expressed his opinion on behalf of  Radio Caroline, unlike those other (fence-sitting) licensed broadcasters!
