Yup, this one is a bit of a stoater. EU has to be funded, we agreed to the rules and provided the data for the calculations. But it seems very odd to demand a billion or two and you've got just a few weeks to pay up.
And the EU. Well countries like France, Spain, Germany and others adore us. Between the EU and the USA, now China and India are getting in on the act too, well we've sold off the bulk of our utilities and public services to them. Absolutely bonkers. We are the problem not the EU. We are run by an establishment that are lining their pockets any old how at our expense and future.
Cough cough, half of Africa today, cough cough. Grandad was Govenor of the Northern Province of the Sudan during WWII, look at what a miserable state that country's in today! When many family members were white farmers in Zimbabwe (or Rhodesia as it was then), that country was known as "the breadbasket of Africa", it was producing so much food. Now look at it.
Oh come on. Post dodgy empire days, between us the US, USSR (Russia now) we've been fighting over Africa for control and influence for decades. And we do like to support and get corrupt dictators or corruptable governments in control so we can do stuff like sell them expensive weapons systems that they don't need or have any real use for whilst their economies do down the plug hole and their people starve. It's a handy place too, to dump our EU farming excess for a bit o cash, and who cares if it destroys their agriculture industry. I could go on..... Of course it's easier to roll out the usual racist crap, rather than face up to the facts.
Yup EU is the biggest single market in the world, it's on our door step, we've got to be part if it and make it work.
Meanwhile what are you lot gonna vote for come May - the general election. The Good Old Tories, The New Tories, The Third Rate Tories or Nigel make it up as he goes along Farage and his Ultra Tories.
UKIP would do me fine. That 45% who voted YES in Scotland I don't think are gonna go away or shut up, and if UKIP sweep to power (well get a good result), Scottish Independence will come quick.
I mean Tory Tory Tory Tory, there's nothing for ordinary people to vote for.
It's a real shame but I see no future for the UK as it is.
