Project Fear going into overdrive

Now that the EU referendum is in full swing, the Remain campaign has come up with some very spurious reasons to vote in.  One thing that caught my eye today is the idea that foreign holidays and roaming charges will increase in the event of a Brexit.  This was based on David Cameron's claim that a typical family holiday in Europe will be 230GBP more expensive.

Even if that was true, then so what?  Britons can always take their holidays at home, which will be good for the UK tourism industry.  As for the roaming, one has to ask how often do people make phone calls abroad and are there any alternatives such as a pay phone.
