    May spent £10 billion on 10 votes. €320k on an election she did not need to call. All within 7-days.

    The EU budgeted up to €3.9 billion in 2014 for spending that could be used to promote itself.

    BARMY Eurocrats are to spend €400,000 (£350k) of taxpayer’s cash on pro-EU propaganda aimed at British schoolchildren over the next four years.

    Despite the Brexit vote, the European Commission today advertised for the lucrative contract to teach our kids about “the benefits and opportunities that stem from European citizenship”.
    The EU’s permanent London office plan to hold 100 “educational sessions” at a cost of €100.000 per year.

    Some of the sessions will take place at the Europe House in Central London, while others will part of a travelling propaganda show in other spots around the country.

    The lavish contract will “cover a maximum period of 4 years” — when Britain is due to exit the EU.

    what you are disputing that:
    1. The Leaks happened
    2. They involved Macron in some way
    3. Some of them said its worth Keeping the British on side if there is a military issue?

    Aren't these the emails which were leaked when he stood for President? If so then many were found to be fake and I would suspect that someone has been through them all. Eurosceptic press clutching at straws...

    WikiLeaks releases thousands of hacked Macron campaign emails
    More than 20,000 emails from Emmanuel Macron’s presidential campaign have been published by WikiLeaks.

    The whistleblowing website released the trove of leaked emails on Monday as a searchable archive. It comes almost three months after the Macron campaign was hacked on the eve of his election.

    WikiLeaks, best known for publishing huge stores of US spy agency records, said the emails date between March 2009 and April 24 2017.

    Or a carefully worded "story" that doesn't give any details but hints at things hoping that the readers draw their own conclusions with a little help from the newspaper to make sure the conclusions drawn are the ones they would like to be drawn.

    Who sent the emails? Not Macron, but they are called "Macron's emails"

    When were they sent? Some unspecified time in the past - although it does say some were sent before be became president.

    What did they actually say? Not the selective out of context stuff, but the full content and the flow of the conversation.

    One thing is sure. There must NEVER be an EU army. German munitions must be limited to air pistols.
