PM Wants ‘Honest Discussion’ on EU Free Movement; Perth Asks for Free Movement Round Broxden First

Locals say they'd settle for getting from the Dunkeld Road to Inveralmond without a passport.

PERTH — The Prime Minister’s call for an “honest discussion” about returning to EU free movement was welcomed in Perth, where residents say they would first like free movement around Broxden roundabout.

“I can get to Lisbon quicker than I can get to Tesco Extra,” said fictional commuter Douglas McInroy, 52. “Brussels is lovely, but have they tried the third exit at teatime?”

The Perthetic petition to remove Broxden from existence remains open and is, we’re told, the only form of free movement currently functioning in the area.

Letters to the Editor

The views expressed are those of the reader, and frankly that's on them.

  1. Third exit at teatime is the real Brexit.

  2. I’d sign a petition for free movement round Broxden. Oh wait, there is one.
