Paphiti didn't they teach you anything about accuracy in the aviation school?

They tried to but gave up on him as he believed that he knew more about aviation than the tutors. So they booted him out :lol:

Britain puts in about 40 billion every year, as a net contributor to the EU. The U.K. has not made any issue with regard to that amount of money.

That is their final contribution.

The only issue seems to be the Irish Border. This is the reason why Parliament has rejected the EU offer.

This is why Britain is now prepared to BREXIT with no deal.


You think so??
Silly me, and I thought they were leaving to save the estimated 8-9 billion of their net contribution for their NHS.
Whereas with this so called "free trade deal" will have to pay about the same net amount upto July 2020, and for
whatever period the deal is extended, having to abide to a lot of EU laws to which they will have no say, etc etc.
Like I said it's about the same deal as that of Norway. Are you sure this what they want?

Answering my own question, yes I agree with you,they prefer to leave with no deal at all.

work it out asshole we pay no taxes but we contribute 1%, stop and think how much we would pay if we lost the fta and got charged even 10% tax which it will not be it will be more like average 20%. that is the reall issue, your average brexiteer is as thick as shit. and the rest fell for the fascist propaganda.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The UK had an overall trade deficit of -£64 billion with the EU in 2018. A surplus of £29 billion on trade in services was outweighed by a deficit of -£93 billion on trade in goods. The UK had a trade surplus of £44 billion with non-EU countries.


Work out those taxes... :lol:

It seems that the average Remoaner is as dense as osmium... :wink:

you clearly did not understand how these fugures are calculated.

here goes one last time.

Each country's payment is divided into three parts: a fixed percentage of gross national income (GNI), customs duties collected on behalf of the EU (known as "traditional own resources") and a percentage of VAT income.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8036097.stm

In 2007, five countries - Germany, France, Italy, the UK, and Spain - contributed nearly half of the budget.

In fact, Germany alone - Europe's largest economy - paid more than the 19 lowest-paying member states combined.

Each country's payment is divided into three parts:
a fixed percentage of gross national income (GNI),
customs duties collected on behalf of the EU (known as "traditional own resources") and
a percentage of VAT income.

The GNI-based contribution is the largest part of each country's payment and is set each year by the EU to balance the budget.

There is one other important part of the revenue calculations: the UK rebate, which returns to the UK two-thirds of its payments.

This rebate is paid for by the other 26 countries as a fixed amount of their gross national income.



while we are at it here is a bit more food for though but only for those who at least one brain cell.

In 2017, UK exports to the EU were £274 billion (44% of all UK exports). UK imports from the EU were £341 billion (53% of all UK imports). The share of UK exports accounted for by the EU has fallen over time from 55% in 2006 to 43% in 2016, increasing slightly to 44% in 2017.

if we imported from the eu 341 billion worth the average tax at 15% would be about 50 billion and the tax our exports would be charged at would be about 40 billion. bloomin heck what bargain it is to be in the eu fta.

but thats ok we must be allowed have the right to hold the union jack on a stick and sing rulle britannia.

There can only be one conclusion to the above post, which is, the UK needs EU’s goods more than the EU of UK’s goods. So the question then becomes, how much is it going to cost the UK if it wants to import same goods from a non EU country under WTO rules, assuming the UK can get the same goods as they do from EU countries. Let’s hope the non EU countries make luxury cars like the European countries can, since the well off Brits love these cars.

Paphitis, whenever there is a release of a listing of world's 10,20,30,40 50+ best lifestyle cities, Europe wins hands down by almost 75% of the total figures, therefore, Europe must be doing something right. :wink:

its not just more is it its a ell of a lot more.
uk needs 56% of eu trade and eu needs 18% of uk trade.

after brexit eu will feel like an eagle that has had couple of its feather plucked but uk will look more like an eagle that has its winks clipped and has caught its nuts in a mangle. ouch please no.
this form our friends ireland.
enjoy
