You post real nonsense here. Whether or not the Government decides to fund all the EU funding, the money stays in the UK.

At the moment the UK gives £13 billion and gets back £4.5 billion. So The UK loses £8.5billion. That's £8.5 billion that can be spent on schools, NHS, etc. Whatever the Government decides to spend it on, it will be money in the UK that Westminster will share out.

Now add these.
EU citizens on benefits.
EU citizens in a job a Brit could do.
EU citizens driving down wages.
EU citizens driving up house prices and rents.
EU citizens needing NHS care.
EU citizens needing schooling.
EU citizen criminals.

Now add the future problems of Automation destroying jobs.

The overall cost of EU membership is making the UK and Brits poorer.
