The Consequences of Brexit [part 4]

[apelike]

Thankfully,that's not the EU I live in,and long may it continue to be that way,the Londoncentric UK and the deprived provinces that the have nots,the forgotten and the just about managing will soon have to replace EU regeneration money with UK money,let's see how much the UK governments are prepared to throw at these places,or tell the people who live there that they are a complete waste of time and money.

 

A lot of the regeneration money from the EU has been wasted on failed fanciful schemes, so there is no reason to assume that the money will need replacing. In fact in some cases the EU were wanting it returned.

So you don’t live in the UK, then? However if I misunderstood your post, best brace yourself for March 2019.

Well the UK can decide whether to continue wasting UK money on the same schemes,or tell the people and the areas that they aren't worth bothering about.

To me the EU strives to achieve equality, which is an impossibility, as with individuals, there will always be a state that is more equal than others. There has to be failures and successes in order to achieve more, throwing money at failure in order to simulate success is a complete waste of time and money, as with the PIGS members.

 

We seem to agree with the aims of the EU,but whereas you think it’s a waste of time trying to achieve some equitable balance of wealth ,I think the opposite.

It might be a long and slow process and not one that we will see the fruits of in our lifetime.

On the other hand our parents and grandparents endured 2 major wars in Europe,so perhaps we have had some benefit over the last 70 years.

and MOST of these failed fanciful schemes are UK government / Council failed fanciful schemes, apart from having less EU money thrown at these failed fanciful how do you think leaving the EU will help?

The have nots outrank the haves, lets see how the haves do at election times, perhaps they will see sense.

Could you give us some examples of these failures?

 

On a sidenote, I am in Greece, speaking to a wide range of Greeks, all of whom blame their own government and feel the EU had no choice to act the way it did.

 

Just goes to show, again, that the ‘consternation on behalf of Greece’ that exists within the Labour party is built on la-di-la nonsense. In fact, here in the second city most people think things are now way better than before the crisis as the ever-present corruption and mismanagement has finally been cut down.

Don't go?

Very few conglomerates of this type last forever. If Turkey is ever allowed to join, they might as well use Eurovision Song Contest rules and invite Israel to join, which actually makes more sense than welcoming all of the ex Soviet satellite states, implosion is a real possibility, not in my lifetime, but I still think that Brexit will benefit the UK in the long run.

Juncker was saying not so long ago he wanted Albania. Macedonia and some other lame duck country to join.

But he was worried that Poland who are one of the biggest recipients of EU cash, will as their economy improves be eventually a net contributor and the part of the population who are euro sceptic will become even more so as they are paying for those countries.

The EU doesn't have any money, only what the members pay in. We pay in a lot and get a bit back.

You'll be OK when we leave. You might get one of the jobs when all the remoaners leave as they keep promising us, then you won't need to spend another 18 years on the dole.
