Seems fake news is everywhere 20:22 - Dec 11 with 910 viewsStokieBlue

So was just in a cab home and the driver said the client earlier in the night said that if Boris gets in you'll need to pay for the NHS. Even had specifics, 250 GBP bill apparently if you call an ambulance.

It seems that fake news is everywhere, from all sides and all people.

How depressing.

Madness, 250 GBP? I heard it was more like 300.

my cabbie told me he was voting brexit as the Turks, who are joining the eu, were going to send a fleet of ambulances undercutting Boris by only charging 150.

Don't disagree, Tories are awful.

Just didn't expect to hear something so false expressed as fact on my way back from the pub.

Certainly could be, however, because it's me you can be safe in the knowledge that it's not.

I would have expected a quote from the S*n more from a taxi driver (I assume that quote wasn't from it). Unashamed stereotyping, though.

Don’t. I did actually have a taxi driver tell me we need to get Brexit done before 80 million Turks come here. We need to teach kids to assess reliability of information and think critically, or we’re fecked.

Eh?

It literally just happened on my way home in my Kapten.

Just thought it was interesting that such things were floating around, it's not something I'd heard before.

The fact it was in a cab isn't really relevant.

I was saying I wouldn't have expected a cabbie to be repeating it (which I pointed out involves my own stereotyping of cabbies).

Wasn't questioning the validity, meaning anything offensive to you, them or anyone else. Not sure how you took what I said.

Ah, sorry, I misunderstood.

Just watching Newsnight and it's so depressing seeing the latest brexit projections.
