      Looking at the top 5 countries trading with Iran that India, China and the EU will have a common cause.

      Not looking good for the USA when a combined market around 3 times the size of the US is against them.

      I'm alright Jack

        How? In what way? Or have you just been reading too much Daily Mail (ironic for someone who drops “Adolf” into a conversation, considering they were his biggest fan).
        UK net contribution to the EU in 2016: £8.6 billion. But noooo, no shafting going on here. Merkel's desperate for us to stay in it. I'm not arsed either way, there are pros and cons (the real irony is Tommy Morrison fans and remoaners alike can't see both sides because they're never wrong in their tiny bigoted minds) and I opted not to vote, partly in protest at the way that both sides had conducted themselves during the campaign.

        I've not read the Daily Fail for many, many years. Oh and it was you who brought it in because of a tedious Hitler link that you can leftily tug your tiny todger to.

        if you sing "two world wars and one world cup" you'll feel better.

        Bless. What a thoroughly intellectual contribution as ever. Haven't you got a leaflet campaign to start or a quiche to bake?

          Whether the UK leaves or stays Angela will be shafting the UK because the UK has made itself impotent.

            £8.6 billion per year better off. Viagara is now OTC, so we should get easily further than a semi in four years.

              The figure is about 2.5% of the government budget.

              When you quote it in billions, it sounds like a lot. When you compare it with the rest of the budget, it's not much at all.

                The biggest drain is social protection in its various guises. That's increasing most as a portion of the whole too. Quite funny that there's a whole flap about EU migrants when figures have shown that non-EU migrants are, on average, a bigger drain on that.

                    Does that include the 40 bn leaving bill ?, and not to forget the 16 billion lost per annum due to the devaluation of the pound.

                    If you leave your job think of all those savings on petrol and bus fares.

                      can't think why!
