 The amount of E.u corruption is mind boggling. And those whistleblowers who attempt to expose it are soon moved on.

I think you need to do some homework, on the corruption in the E.u.

 It’s all out there on the internet, with interviews with prominent E.u officials, who turned to be whistleblowers.

my local council sold a country house valued at £1.5 million plus for £200k a few years back,nobody else got a sniff of it,it made the local TV but nothing ever happened,is that bad business of fraud,i have a mate high up in the same council and he says back handers are common,Uber was one of the latest he says they have bribed nearly every council in the UK.its wrong but its life,you brexit lovers need to make up
I quite agree that corruption is still rife in the UK..remember I knew fairly well the workings of Glasgow city council..however when UK taxpayers money is sent to the eu and then dodgy dealings happen to UK taxpayers money by foreigners ...different story as far as I'm concerned.

You compare the EU to continents but never mind. Because they do it it's OK for the EU to do the same as well as take membership fees and taxes. I see.

Agree entirely.

And what has this to do with the EU precisely ?

so it only becomes a big issue when EU fiddlers are involved,typical reply,i doubt EU corruption is any worse than UK corruption,majority of it will be expenses which is no big deal,be lucky if it costs a few pennies a year for every UK citizen.

the EU is as good as a continent and comprises the vast majority of europe,do you really expect to be in the club and NOT pay a membership fee,come on wake up man,as for taxes the UK sets her own if you hadnt noticed,many of which are higher than other EU nations.

The point was corruption. We don't need two tiers of that plus taxes too. Wake up man!

At least Nigel is paying his questionable dues but you didn't mention...……...

"There is a vindictive campaign by the European Parliament of selective persecution of Eurosceptic MEPs, parties and groups," said the spokesman for the European Freedom and Direct Democracy group."

 

Of course its even better business if you don't want to pay your dues, you create an umbrella, under which, you are given a blank cheque and don't have to explain/justify  annual expenses of 50000 euros.

"A decision by members of the European Parliament to reject even modest scrutiny of their expenses — worth over €50,000 a year — caused outrage among some of their colleagues in the assembly...……….. 

The expense payments of €4,416 per month are given to MEPs as a lump sum in addition to their regular pre-tax monthly salary of €8,611."

It's not bad is it, tax free payments of half your salary with no need for explanation.

More claims of EU bullying...as for expenses do you really think the MEPs are going to vote to give themselves a pay cut,50k euro's is less than half what bojo charges for an after dinner speach.

Who are the big names who convinced you for Remain? Bob Geldof, Lilly Allen, Jude Law, Kiera Knightly, Benedict Cumberbatch?
The other week REMAINER luvvies including Hugh Grant, David Mitchell and Brian Cox have led a desperate last-ditch charge to stop Brexit WITHOUT another referendum
Possibly your big names come from the soaps and reality shows?

If you don’t vote, you lose the right to voice your disdain for politics because you’ve essentially become the architect of your own disillusionment. As George Bernard Shaw said: "Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than what we deserve". Those people who fail to vote deserve everything that another flimsy coalition with its bonfire of burning manifestos promises to bring.

I don't think you understand Nigel Farage

 

"In 2003 documentary "The Real Face of the European Union", former Ukip leader Nigel Farage attacked the bloc for its "fraudulent system", its corruption and MEPs' travel expenses. Mr Farage said: "This place is thick with institutional corruption. "You can now buy a cheap airline ticket to come to Strasbourg for about £45 return. "When you get here, you are reimbursed nearly £800 for the cost of that flight. "Now, this has been going on for the last 20 years and, of course, what has happened that MEPs haven’t been talking about it? "The system is fraudulent. It is rotten to the core." In the same documentary, political activist Norris McWhirter also hit out at the EU, claiming that "accounts haven't been signed off for the last eight years". In September 2018, an EU court rejected calls for greater transparency about MEPs’ expenses and upheld the decision that politicians are not required to reveal how they spend public money. "

Spare a thought for those disenfranchised after 15 years abroad and/or who's ballots were deliberately not sent to addresses outside the UK/EU.

 

(Moves are afoot to abolish but will be painfully slow!).

As an aside and off topic (as I know it is of interest to many of you) Sir Peter Bottomley raised the question of the inconsistencies in rules governing British expat frozen pensions in the House last week, got some support and is looking for a Commons debate.
