If there's enough Brexiteers that are adamant Big Ben has to bong to celebrate us leaving the EU then they can pay for it themselves rather than expecting all taxpayers (or even just Londoners) to cough up for it. Apparently it's been costing over £100,000 to do it on New Year's Eve, and to do it now could be up to £500,000 (mostly down to the delay of restoration works).
At £46k a bong, it is a strawberry floating ridiculous idea. NYE was a stupid idea as well.
It's a bloody clock, who the strawberry float cares if it bongs to mark certain events.
Still, Leavers do like wasting money so hopefully it bankrupts a few of the stupid bastards.
