As I voted to leave the EU, it's hardly a surprise I voted UKIP in EU elections.
Notice you didn't quote the full post though. If you had, you would note my stance has not changed 4 years later. Go back 3 pages, on this thread and just yesterday you will find me saying the same thing.
I also got one of the three things on my wishlist for voting UKIP in the EU elections - just 2 more to go.
Quite brilliant. As a brexiteer u-turn, this makes claiming that the bus never talked about £350 million pounds going to the NHS seem pretty amateur...0 -
From This Week-BBC last night.......
!!!8221; !!!8220;The nature of our future relationship with the European Union, will not now be determined until we enter the transition period.
It will probably go beyond the transitional period because we have now have added another year with this backstop.
But we still have to pay the £39 billion immediately after March of next year. I mean we have been outmanoeuvred on this.!!!8221;

!!!8220;: !!!8220;That is an understatement. Textbooks will be written on the incompetence of the British negotiation.
But to call it incompetence is to be too kind, I think this has been a conspiracy.
As you said a moment ago, all the senior civil servants are Remainers, about half the cabinet are Remainers, and probably more than half of the Conservative parliamentary party are Remainers.!!!8221;

Happening anyway.Theresa May has pledged to bring forward a long-term funding plan for the NHS in response to growing concerns that key health services are being overwhelmed by rising demand.
27th March 2018
Seems as if the Unions today accepted the 6.5% three year pay review offer. The £4.5 billion cost is being funded directly from the Treasury not out of hospital budgets.0
