£43m pounds, is Mr Vacuum Cleaner even cut out to be a rich person?

Did I? If I did, I didn’t mean to - clearly the U.K. pays in more cash then it gets back in cash (I’m being very specific with the wording there).

The point was that Dyson’s payments are (effectively) from the U.K. anyway, and that this won’t stop in October.

You're more bullish about getting out of the EU than I am...

You implied we get our money back minus an admin fee (after all, someone's got to pay Juncker's bar-bill, sorry, pension.)

FTFY

I’ve highlighted the bit that we’re part of. It’s the same money tree.

What about the billions the EU have spent in the rest of Europe? They must have a better magic money tree than we do...

I'm sure there will be no disruption to payments. After all lessons were learnt from Universal Credit enrollment...

Farmers tend to be Tory supporters, UC recipients tend to be Labour supporters. There will be no disruption (unless there’s a change in government)

(An oversimplification and someone will probably pop in to correct the numbers....)

One of the main arguments for Brexit is that the money that the EU spends in the U.K. is just the UK’s money with an admin fee removed.

Ergo, he gets nearly GBP 3m from the U.K.

Will this stop after October? No. At least, not until 2022.

And he gets nearly GBP3m in subsidies from the EU for them....

Why? Will the U.K. be stopping all subsidies to farmers? Haven’t heard that one, do you have a cite?

Boris and Jeremy have promised to give Dyson even more money after Brexit, but no fear this will come from the magic money tree.

[PCTNN]

Did you know that Mr Dyson is also the UK's single largest farmer?

He's been busy buying up farms for the last few years.

Great move! With the UK's economy going to tulip after brexit and the UK having to go back to farming, he'll already be in pole position.

What a man, sir Dyson! Making british agriculture great again!

About time the UK had a tax on global income for its citizens.
