In 2017 the UK government paid £13 billion to the EU budget, and EU spending on the UK was forecast to be £4 billion. So the UK’s ‘net contribution’ was estimated at nearly £9 billion. So to summarise, per week: - 13 billion divided by 52, that's a contribution of 250 million per week. - 9 billion divided by 52, that's a net cost of 173 million per week.

It is about should politicians state facts or fantasy ? Now Boris is just being shown up for what he is, a lying politician. However most politicians are considered to be untruthful, or at least economical with the truth. Boris was the first to put his head over the parapit so hence the first to get shot at. Will the UK become more honest if Boris is found guilty ? As much chance of that as the UK ever leaving the EU. It may however make them more circumspect in what they say rather than quoting outrageous and unsupportable figures, irrespective of what side of the political spectrum they come from. Farage should have been the target before Boris in my opinion as Boris really can't help himself whilst Farage is just an odious, self praising trouble maker, whose intent is to raise his profile in order to command bigger appearance fees on US networks when he eventually lives there. Most of the European freaks migrated to the US in the 17th/18th centuries claiming European persecution. Lets hope he is the first to re-start the trend in the 21st centuary.

And many regret their choice already. That's why a one-issue party got 1/3 of the votes.

malagateddy Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 When will they look into the statements by Edward Heath and cronies, who in the run up to the 1975 referendum, categorically stated that their was no chance of the EEC being transformed into a political Union. And right up to the present day when the majority of M.P’s voted to respect the 2016 referendum. And why is this announcement made, just after Johnson declares his intention to stand for the leadership of the Conservative party, while another investigation into antiSemitism in the Labour Party is delayed until After the E.U elections.

The Turkish invasion was another, the EU make all our laws etc etc etc. However for me probably the biggest influence was the Daily Rabies (Mail, Sun and Express) fighting a long long campaign to demonize immigrants. Paul Dacre should be hung drawn and quartered. Boris should arguably be horsewhipped, but you can't practically lock politicians up for lying. Lord Carrington was the last to resign on a matter of principle, today's politicians don't bother with principles.

It's too much of a coincidence that this case has been given the nod just after Boris has put himself up for the PM job. That stinks of corruption. The case is being crowdfunded by a group of remainers. There have been countless untruths told throughout this whole referendum/Brexit process by both sides. Where do you draw the line? Shall we have every Labour MP who has said the Tories are going to privatise the NHS sent to court? This bunch of remainers are setting a precedent here which could have all sorts of ramifications. All out of desperation to stop Brexit. Fact is: Quote Mr Ball's lawyers lodged an application in February to summons Mr Johnson, claiming that while an MP and mayor of London, he deliberately misled the public during the first campaign, and repeated the statement during the second. In February we were going to be out of the EU by now, there would be no EU elections, and May would have gone by now as Brexit would have been done and dusted. I a written judgement, that means the case was heard days if not weeks ago, so just coincidental that the judgement was announced yesterday even if it could not have at a worse time for the Brexiteers prize poodle. Of coarse nothing to stop Brexiteers crowdfunding and instigate a few prosecution of their own, I will not disagree some people both sides of the Brexit divide told some porkies, so hopefully things will be changed so that the Electoral Commision can investigate all aspects of campaigning for all elections and with some luck we will some people barred from public office, fined and even sent to prison. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underhand or not - Boris Johnson should not be PM on the basis he's a <deleted> idiot ! As Ian Duncan-Smith has quite correctly pointed out, why have they not attempted to prosecute him, for repeating the slogan. Could it possible be because he is not a contender for the leadership of the Labour Party, while Johnson is. And then of course no prosecution of those remainers who lied during and after the people’s referendum. It is quite obviouse that the establishment and their puppets are trying,and it would seem,being very successful in undermining what remains of British Democracy. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
