This is a normal post Where are you getting £12bn from?
Is that with or without the rebate and indeed subsidies? That looks suspiciously like you've taken that number the fat trolls like Johnson spouted as true, when even Farage disavowed it.
"• €13.8bn is the total raised from the UK. This includes money raised in duties within the UK and passed on to the EU. The UK receives a 25% fee of €850.6m for this. Within that…
• €11.3bn is the UK's national contribution, which is largely based on the size of our economy. It also includes other adjustments and €2.5bn from VAT
• -€3.6bn in rebates negotiated by Margaret Thatcher in 1984, called the 'UK correction' in the official data. This is paid for by other EU member states. Mostly France, which pays €965.9bn towards our rebate"

So you're talking shit again.

edit: Also you'll note that euros still aren't quite the same as pounds, although the brexit vote has fucked our currency. Good job.

This is a normal post So based on your sums
How much money exactly is leaving our country to go to the EU? Because it still looks like several billion no matter how you cut it.

This is a normal post Let's at least use the proper figures
Prufrock is a Boris Johnson sock-puppet account and thanks to him and his ilk travel will be now be a pain, we're going to have work opportunities across Europe reduced, our currency has suffered and we're going to have to pay sub-standard, lazy, thick British workers to do jobs that grateful Europeans would do twice as well for half the price.
