A bitter clash is looming over who will foot the bill for paying pensions owed to thousands of British Eurocrats when the UK leaves the EU.
Brussels has estimated its pensions liability at €60 billion (£50.7 billion) for all retired and current officials, with annual payments currently at about €1.4 billion (£1.2 billion).
Some 1,730 Britons currently make up almost 8 per cent of the 22,000 retired EU officials.
The UK insists it cannot be held responsible for Eurocrat pensions which, it says, are the responsibility of EU institutions.

A giant FU to the Eurocrats!!!
LOL!!!
Sounds like what is needed is to impose a "needs test" on these pensions. The socialists think the rich need to pay more taxes. Pensions based on this salary scale sound rather rich. They can retire in the Iberian Peninsula just before Brexit is finalized. I hear the cost of living is much cheaper there.
Warning to any country that wants to get into the EU. They made it difficult to get out.
Actually, it makes sense, provided they leave the EU employ with the Brexit.
But if they stay on, then the EU is responsible for their pensions.
Or the ever ready “Sod off you wanker”.
Obviously, the EU is a globalist "Roach Motel" (or Hotel California...)!
Britain should ask the EU if the letters F.O. Mean anything to them.
Quite right.
What’s th ebigdeal? These people paid into their pension plans...it’s just a matter fo withdrawing the money from the bank... Right? Isn’t all the pension money kept in a lockbox?
Problem:
The E. U. Leadership liaisonsultimately leftist and Muslim mercenaries. All three factions want to destroy free republics and 10,000 years of development of perfect unions, independent citizens, and pursuit of happiness. This fight could get really nasty. WWIII.
Hillary is just fine with the Evil Three...she’s with them.....until it’s too late.
Only three leaders I know can resist and ultimately prevail over this cocktail of evil: Trump; Putin; Netanyahu.
Seems to slightly resemble Armageddon.

Laughter is the only appropriate response
Let’s send Brussels the BLM protestors
Anything the EU does, or proposes, is about enriching the Eurocrats. Britain will be a wealthier country because of Brexit.
To quote Donald Trump, “you can tell them to go f themself”.
Don’t forget the A.D.!
Just so.
