Most us Americans are quite indifferent to what goes on in Europe, let alone the country we left to build this one. However, Last Week Tonight spent a significant amount time educating us Yanks about the European Union and the UK’s attempt to exit from that unity via this Thursday’s Brexit vote. Watch as host John Oliver covers the story of the week and unleashes a barbershop quarter song that implores Brits to vote against the Brexit. According to Oliver, the tune “relentlessly insults Europe and quietly acknowledges how lost we’d be without it.” (WARNING: Lots of potty language with accents! Song intro begins at about 13:27)
Mentions: Watch Last Week Tonight Sundays at 11pm on HBO.
