The greatest lie in Britain isn't the idealized Brexit terms that fooled gullible voters. The greatest lie in Britain is the claim that it's easy to find a shop that will sell you a mobile phone.
Thank you, but not necessary. Once my schedule settled down enough that I could predict where I would be, and in a city, when the shops were open and I would have time, I looked it up. But what I had been told was, "Oh, they're everywhere." I shouldn't have had to look it up.
I find the phrase "easy to find, " especially as applied to something supposedly so common you might easily stumble across one without looking for it, to have a distinctly different meaning from "possible to research. "
