Tim Farron Raps John Barnes Tribute On EU Referendum Campaign

Just. Stop.

There's a referendum happening tomorrow and it would appear the country is collectively losing its mind.

Already today we've had BoJo kissing a fish, Bobby George saying #DontFuckMyFuture and Ukip MEP Steven Woolfe reading a self-penned poem but this, ladies and gents, is peak referendum.

Lib Dem leader Tim Farron has filmed a rap tribute to footballer John Barnes to thank him for writing a heartfelt case for remain earlier in the day.

Here it is. Ready? You're not but go ahead anyway...

'Jacka' sums it up quite nicely. 

Farron does have musical form - the Cumbria MP told the Huffington Post UK last year that he once fronted a group “written off as a fourth rate New Order”.

He refused to reveal the name of the three-piece as “you can find it on YouTube”.
