A Quote by David Jason
We have more and more rules coming out of Europe telling us what to do, and I think people are getting a bit fed up with it. This was supposed to be a common market. I don't remember them ever saying we would be governed by Brussels and become a satellite of Europe.

America and Europe are getting closer to each other. In the U.S. you've always had hip - hop, the blues, soul, and rock.
