you make it sound like we're giving money away to an organisation that we're not actually a part of.

By about £8.9 billion a year.

So you're in essence saying you don't care how much it costs us, as long as we don't send money to the EU, it's all good?

Costing us £100bn to save £9bn is a good idea, for instance?

You must also hate places like Costco, which have an annual membership fee, even though you can save the cost of the fee in the first visit.

Rolls Royce gets permission to move approvals work back into the EU. May move it back to UK if we figure out what we're doing. No immediate job losses but I'm not sure that's be the case if the move is permanent.

His/her maths are just fine. Not so sure about yours.

It's 10%.

Given that the 10% figure is all assets of the UK financial sector, that would include solely UK based assets (e.g. UK mortgage book) which would never be moved to the EU. So as a percentage of non-UK based assets it's a lot higher than 10%.

Well done Brexiteers! We're exporting a lot of capital to the EU!

We give £8.9 billion a year to Rees Mogg, Boris Johnson and the other brexit supporting mps?

We should give it to the EU instead, they are much more trustworthy

Which of Tusk, Juncker, Selmayr, Verhofstadt and Barnier would you consider to be trustworthy and why?

I'd pick the EU bunch in a heartbeat over May, Boris, Gove, IDS, McVey, Patel, Hunt and disgraced MP Liam Fox.

Another that doesn't understand the difference between "assets" and "liabilities" or how such things work. You can't debate with someone like that who has no clue of how what they think they are discussing works.

A hint: We supposedly know how much is being moved in "assets". Now tell us how much is being moved in "liabilities"?

Never trust a politician, but I'd say that this bunch has proved to be way more competent than the collection of nincompoops on our side.
