UK interference in EU

Britain to pay indefinitely into the EU

Great move by the EU. The Swiss style deal is well on its way.

I think we should erect some huge electronic billboards all around the UK showing how much the UK contributes per week to the EU after Brexit.

Bear in mind that whilst passporting means that UK firms can provide financial services to the rest of the EU, it also means the rest of the EU can provide financial services in the UK. And in fact there are more rest of EU firms providing financial services in the UK than UK firms providing to the EU.

So... For sure, if we have to pay for this continued right, then surely the EU has to pay us for EU firms to provide financial services in the UK?

Jesus and he calls The Netherlands, Holland, that is not going down very well with the Dutch either.

Well of course that is a real cardinal sin.

Possibly. The UK can deduct it off the Gross amount, and call it a "rebate" or something....
