Brexit left the EU short of around £62 billion when Britain left the bloc last month. Sounds like the UK can afford a £62 tax cut.

Looks like the grand Pooh Bahs of the EU are trying to tap someone elses money. Never their own, so sad

“How do you get such a long title to fit in your post.”
The need to truncate titles was fixed a couple of months ago.
Long titles are cool now.
Just copy and paste.

The elitists are getting greedy, the scam should be pulling in more money, theres more to pay out to lie about it

I find it astonishing how proud every German I’ve ever met is about how “efficient” they are with everything. It’s to the point of pathological. Yet think nothing of becoming dependent on Putin for natural gas.
It’s a great example of how powerful the government + media can shape the general opinions of an entire population...and their ‘green solutions’ don’t even result in the claimed benefits, they have no idea either.

I guess I was wrong. Apparently, money is an object.

Everything from toilets and A/C not working on the trains to idiotic "diesel free" zones in cities. They've come a long way, baby.

Trump’s way of defunding bullies and bad people which destroys or weakens them to being harmless is masterful.

That’s part of my opinion too - when “efficiency” starts to lower standards of living (things don’t work) then it defeats the purpose. They’re making claims of “success” that are simply not true.

The left is all about fear. If it isn’t imagined fear about carbon dioxide, it’s imagined fear of ionizing radiation. They don’t embrace new-clear.

‘Climate Change’ is a scam that transfers money and power to corrupt ‘elites’ from the people who work for a living.
If these corrupt assh*les actually believed the crap they put out, they would NOT have homes in Martha’s Vineyard OR every ‘elite’ island and beach community in the world...

Angela can’t - Germany won’t allow her.
What will happen is that
1. The budget will be cut
2. Currently the EU budget is about $174 billion. In comparison the state of Texas’ budget is $120 billion.
3. The countries that are the biggest recipients - Poland, Romania - with the bulk of this going to infrastructure won’t be too happy to take a cut and will push for cuts elsewhere -
4. this means cutting the eu parliament.
