    Have a look at the back of your Statement of Account from HMRC, it’s all there.
    That is not the point.

    We are not getting value for money for what we pay - so anything is too much.

        Your average Swiss resident pays 7.5p a day.

          Define “value”. And define “we”, while you’re at it.

          Personally, I save more than that in a year through no tariffs, no visas, no roaming charges, no additional admin for green cards or IDPs, etc. Clientco saves millions through lack of tariffs, reduced admin, use of shared agencies instead of one here and one there, regulatory alignment, etc.

            That 1% could be a drop in the ocean compared to the drag on GDP as a result of leaving.

            Even diehard brexiteers, like moggy, accept that the economy will be significantly worse for years to come.

            However...

            I accept that many, in this country, consider it a price worth paying to get out of a "bad marriage".
