Well you're starting to change your position on this then.
You're going to have to move a lot more than that though

Nope. Been saying that all along.
somewhere on this thread I made reference to leaving a club/magazine subs etc.
That's what you do.
you DON'T pay for stuff you haven't had/won't have and you don't pay for the fact of leaving.
Has no-one else but me noticed that after theras's speech in firnze, the two she aimed it at were conspicuous by their silence, (Juncker, Barnier), and almost IMMEDIATELY, up pops the next puppet, MacRon-ald, to throw even more stalling tactics in the way?
Strange, huh?

Leaving aside the irony of "how can a question be a lie", (remember the remoan outrage at "Let's spend it on the NHS instead", a suggestion, not a promise), I cannot get my head round why your lot seem to be able to just wave, airily and say, "It was only £234 million a week....".
Please explain?
Please explain?
The absolute figure is irrelevant, it's what you get for your money. Plenty of people think it was worth it, others like yourself do not.
That is called opinion. Doesn't get away from the lie about £350 million,though, does it?

Well you're going to be more miserable than normal when this is all settled, although I suspect you'll 'adjust' your view on this again as things become clearer
Do don't seem to get the fact that the £20b that May has already conceded is money we will pay AFTER we leave the EU, it's not for club membership, we're already paying that.

Of course, if you think of the EU as the UK's wife, then it makes perfect sense to give them loads of money in a divorce!

Most folk, when quoting what they earn, quote the gross, not the nett or take home, don't they?
Your lot have still somehow disappeared the remaining £234million a week, though, haven't they?

On that basis, I would also humbly suggest that a good proportion of those monies saved (whatever their actual value) be spent rather on the education system in this country than the NHS

She has said no such thing, to my knowledge.
Only that we will pay what we owe.
#1690
What you earn is totally different, if someone said to you "how much do you have to spend each week", you wouldn't say "well, I earn £800 a week", because you don't have that to spend.
As for disappearing, who has disappeared anything? We simply pointed out that the figure of £350million is incorrect.
I'm not sure why you find this so difficult to understand.

Proof?
Just watch the News, read her speech, read a paper.
What did you think it was for?
Here the first article that comes up when you bother to look for the facts...

The sign said that we give the EU £350 million a week. That's not a lie no matter how you spin it. Whether they give it back, or we withold part of it, we are commited to that spend.
It also SUGGESTED we spend it better.
THAT resounded with a whole load of voters...and why not?
Why give it to ex-communist states that hated us forty years ago, when we could spend it on our NHS, our pensioners, our service men and women???

It says we will pay for something, NOT pay to leave which is what Barnier has been saying.
Get a grip, man.

Here. have another double standard.
This is the problem with Brextieers, they live in the past. Can't forgive a country that hated us, or we hated, want a return to a time that simply cannot exist anymore.
You and your ilk are dinosaurs, you have robbed the youth of their future. Ironically, I also blame the youth for being too lazy to come out and vote

So just goes to show how in touch you lefties are - here's a dose of reality - CDU/CSU (Merkels party) - lowest share of the vote since 1949. SPD, 20% - lowest since 1945.
Afd - 13.5% - far ahead of expected showing (unprecedented for a party that is only 5 years old), enough to be the first far-right party in German parliament since WW2.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-0...ter-late-surge
In the former East Germany, Afd actually polled enough to be the second largest party, with 21.5%.
Like I've said before, you liberals (intolerant to anyone who doesn't share your opinions) are your own worst enemies.
All this is occurring on a backdrop of a strong global economy.. which is built on the biggest debt bubble in history. When that goes pop just watch the surge in support for the far right. You reap what you sow.

What she's offered is to pay for extended membership for another two years.
What they are DEMANDING is a payment to leave. And far above what we'd pay if we stayed.
Yet none of you finds that single fact in any way disturbing?

As for the actual 'divorce bill', no one knows what it is, so it's kind of difficult to say whether it's more or not. The press are not necessarily a good source for that figure......

You do make me laugh. I imagine all the bile and rubbish you spout is down to the drugs you take or because you're a complete imbecile. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it's the former.
You insult people without even knowing it. Then you post about your latest ailment and expect people to have any sympathy or understanding.
You're a sad old man. But at least you keep the majority of posters on here amused with the drivel you post.
I await your next thread telling us how poorly you are AGAIN. Suck it up, but most of all, man up!

sorry? are you reading the same stuff I'm reading?
What HE said was that May had agreed a £20 billion divorce bill.
What SHE (and I), said is that we'll pay for two more years...During which time we get the same rights etc as the other poor saps.
It's a bit like agreeing that you will let your gym club membership continue two more years...while you find alternatives. but during that time, you'd expect to be able to use the club? yes?
What Barmier seems to want us to do is leave completely, but pay them £50 billion to do so. He's got not one chance in hell.
Quite right, but Barmier has let slip £50 billion on more than one occasion...

So you count the 'interim' membership after 2019 as not leaving? So you agree we'll pay the full whack up until 2021? I know that's a difficult question for you to get your head around, but go on, try and answerit.
And......

Not worth a reply, so this is all you'll get.

* Funding the new trade department in Whitehall
* Funding the additional customs and excise costs at the ports
* Maintaining farming and fishing subsidies that the EU paid
* Maintaining university subsidies that the EU paid
* Maintaining research grants that the EU paid
* Maintaining regional development funding that the EU paid
* Funding the unemployed as jobs go overseas
* Bailing out the economy after the post brexit crash (we already owe a load after stabilising the markets the week after the referendum!)
I doubt there will be much left over for the NHS or education!
As for what both Theresa May and David Davis have offered, that is £20 million for a 2 year transition period plus any other financial commitments we are legally obliged to pay. The second figure is open to negotiation, but don't be surprised if it end up around £30 million giving a total exit fee of around £50 million.
Inevitably, there will also be continued funding into the EU for things we want to remain part of, such as research projects and security funding.
No matter how much YOU don't want to pay them anything, the reality is, the government will agree to pay a significant sum to prevent us falling of the cliff edge come Brexit day! Unless you become a member of the cabinet in the next year, YOU have no say in what the government agrees to pay!
...unless of course the government offer a referendum on the final deal!

Just to make is simple for you: 20 billion and divorce bill are completely seperate.

So this is what we can expect in future trade deals, and this is from our closest ally and someone who has said he wants a good deal with us!
Make no mistake, countries will be out for themselves, and rightly so, because we will be. That means years of protracted negotiations whilst our economy suffers.
Welcome to Brexit It's what you voted for, enjoy it.......
