BREXIT

[VNA]

Remainers can't even grasp that the EU money that is used in our country is actually our money

Under the EU rural development fund, which is part of the common agricultural policy, my country has enjoyed considerable investment and development.  This is investment that otherwise would not have happened.  The Tories are not interested in rural Scotland, certainly not the lives of ordinary people and the viability of our communities.  Many of these projects not only have created jobs but made communities that would have otherwise died under the Tories viable and profitable, which in turn means tax for the exchequer.  One of the beautiful things about the EU is a lot of what it does can be detached, or is outwith petty regional or national politics. 



Scotland will take a double hit if we are dragged out of the EU against our will by England.  Not only will we lose any further massive investment by the EU, but the UK will be poorer as a whole meaning our Scottish Parliamentary budgets will be slashed by England.  Any money the UK saves from not having to pay to the EU in membership costs will be wiped out many times over by the economic impact of leaving.
