Remain Bollocks #173

From the Guardian

Cultural and academic connections are not simply a matter of Britain’s being able to attract the best grants for research or for the arts. They are also a matter of the lives of students and young people. The Erasmus programme has sent 200,000 young Britons to universities elsewhere in Europe. The quantifiable gain is enhanced job prospects; harder to quantify are the sheer broadened horizons. 

Yeah, that would be fine except that according to this, there are 33 participating countries. So, Norway and Turkey are also members. So, assuming we exited to be an EFTA state, this would be irrelevant.
