Because we like democracy perhaps? don't think many of the people who voted brexit actually thought we'd be better, or have 350m for the NHS. It's about accountability, the EU heads are so far detached from the everyday person that they cannot be held accountable.

Tell that to the Judges that got called the "Enemy of the People" for upholding the constitution. Your average Brexiter couldn't explain Democracy even with a "Democracy for Dummies" crib sheet in front of them.

those people ended up with an unselected head of state.
also they didn't think they'd be better, but did it anyway? are they fucking mental?

We pay approx £18 billion a year anyways. So bill me for £100 billion over 6 years and job done.

Factor in rebate it's £12 billion


If that is all the price you need to pay. Good

No mention of the City and passporting, not a very detailed article.

Wouldn't that be part of the trade deal talks, which will not begin until the bill has been agreed upon and the rights of EU citizens in the UK after Brexit are secured?

Factor in the money gained back from the EU in grants and bursaries and it's about 6 billion a year. Did you read the article you linked? If we end up having to pay the 100 billion the EU is after (because we have no bargaining power in this situation) that will be the equivalent of 17 years of EU membership paid upfront, do you really think we can afford this?

City or passporting won't be discussed until UK agreed to exit bill, Ireland solution and citizen problems.

I have never been so conflicted in my life by the strong desire to see my own country suffer for this arrogant blunder.

I've never felt more resolve. GOOD JOB IDIOTS! *Frantically starts to learn German*

Absolute bollocks - especially the 2nd sentence

.. so I can time a cheeky holiday to France on the day, and keep an EU passport! Sounds good to me.

Ugh

I completely misread that article, don't know why I thought that would've been a part of the bill. Never mind then.

So unfair the EU is making Britain pay for things it agreed to pay for.
