Originally posted by Old Greg View PostSo that's a Yes then. Not just in theory but in practice.
So, the 100 million per week is never sent to EU and the UK has a veto over it (accepting that it is a feature of a veto that the party that holds the veto may choose not to wield it).
So in what way does leaving the EU free up this 100 million per week to spend on other priorities?

Originally posted by Old Greg View PostIt's clearly too complex for you.
The Guardian, like other grown up papers such as the Telegraph and FT, has a range of writers who write opinion pieces. The Guardian has always been pro Remain. Larry Elliott, one of its regular writers, has been pro Leave.
Do you honestly think that including this opinion piece means that the paper considers project fear bollox?
If the answer is yes, we can just leave it at that. I don't have time to educate the mince today.

I said that it is an opinion piece. I will join the dots for you. An opinion piece is not the same as an editorial position.

The reason why the doom didn't happen was because the government didn't leave the EU! If Cameron had gone over to Brussels in June 2016 to give notice of a "WTO Brexit" and not a Brino transition the UK would have left the EU in the middle of last year and trucks would be queueing 20 miles at Dover, and all those doom laden predictions would probably have come true. The economic forecast based on EEA membership, which is what the current deal is in effect predicted no doom.

Remember all that? It was hard to avoid the doom and gloom, not just in the weeks leading up to the referendum, but in those immediately after it. Many of those who voted remain comforted themselves with the certain knowledge that those who had voted for Brexit would suffer a bad case of buyer’s remorse.
