    When I said "they" would make us vote again until we voted the right way it was suppose to be a joke.

    Until I remembered the the Danish and Irish....

    He stated that he wouldn't pay the bill as it was not a bill addressed to him personally. It was addressed to the UK, so it was for the UK to pay, not Cameron.

    I assume you have the same feeling about the UK then and your ability to vote out the Tories. The party predominantly supported in a different country and that the Scots can't shift by themselves.

    Bingo. That's just how we feel about the EU.

    What you really mean is that you want socialist policies which you would get from the EU but not London. We don't want the socialist policies we get from Europe.

    Nothing wrong with either view and indeed makes sense for both.

    Do you think that is the remuneration for being a member of the house of Lords? The story is not about the House of Lords it is about the beneficiaries of the EU gravy train within the Lords

    He was absolutely right in that tweet. The bill had nothing to do with him and wasn't addressed to him so obviously he should not pay, which he didn't. It was sent to the UK after our representatives in the EU had agreed to the change in calculation and the UK paid.

    It is. Had we not been in the EU this would not have happened.

    The difference being we elected the people making this decision, and can vote them out. We can't with the EU lot.
    The budget explained - How is the budget decided? - Budget

    Based on the multiannual financial framework Regulation in force and the budget guidelines for the coming year, the European Commission prepares the draft budget and submits it by 1 September to the Council and the European Parliament. The Council first adopts its position on the draft budget by 1 October (including amendments). The position of the Parliament follows within 42 days (also including eventual amendments).
    Council = David Cameron, Merkel & co.
    Parliament = the people we directly elect.
