There will be no EU to rejoin 12 months after we depart. The  EU is bust now, without our 12 billion payment. it will sink like a stone.

What reality do you live in? Our financial commitment to the Brussels is only a fraction of their overall budget and hardly a game changer. 

 

And even a quick glance at today’s news will show you an EU that has never been more strong and united. We, on the other hand are hopelessly divided, led by a complete buffoon and seem to have completely abandoned any concept of what is good for the nation, instead willingly handing over our interests to a small handful of corrupt businessmen who now seem to be pulling all the strings.

 

I can guarantee you that the EU will still be here long after the UK has disintegrated, and a rump England and Wales has fallen out of the world’s top ten economies.

Here is the reason why, latest figures I can find published May 2019, but relate to year 2017.

 

Net contributors, listed by amounts paid to the EU. 

 

Germany

UK

France

Italy

Netherlands

Sweden

Austria

Denmark

Ireland

Finland

 

Net recipients, listed by amounts received from the EU.

 

Cyprus

Spain

Malta

Slovenia

Croatia

Estonia

Latvia

Slovakia

Lithuania

Bulgaria

Luxembourg

Belgium

Czech Republic

Portugal

Hungary

Romania

Greece

Poland

 

So 10 Countries actually make a net contribution into the EU, but 18 receive more than they pay in.  Economics of a madman.

How long is it since you went to school, and did they teach you maths at all? (clearly not economics, so not even going to ask about that subject; never mind redistributive ones and their core function within the EU project). 

 

Come on, own up: did you lift this from Facebook or some other social media source?

 

@whiteowl: IT seems to be permanently overheating here in Lux, esp. Fintech/Regtech & cybersec. They're having to scout some pretty exotic locales for (obviously, good-) programmers and build them gold bridges these days.

Thought I had answered that several posts ago, maybe your eyes were full of tears at the thought of your beloved EU sinking like a stone, and you missed my reply's.

Totally agree. If they’re  lying, they’re lying. Let’s not tip toe round it anymore. They can’t keep taking the **** and getting away with it.

This is long overdue.

 

The BBC behaved shamefully during the 2016 referendum campaign by repeatedly allowing  Leave campaigners including several government ministers, to lie in interviews and justified it by challenging the lies would be showing bias and therefore in breach of their charter.

 

The BBC really is unfit for purpose in the modern world. 😡
