The Hidden Cost of EU Membership

[Wormburner]

The HIDDEN Funding Costs of the EU?
Here are just some of the long list:-
- £2.4 BILLION in VAT paid direct to Brussels.
- £1.7 BILLION "punishment for success" because we had higher growth than expected.
- £642 MILLION Fine for "poor Accounting" on Farm Subsidies.(from YOUR money)
- £1 BILLION Towards Bail-Out of Greece
- £150 MILLION fine for not flying the EU flag on projects partly funded by the EU with YOUR money.
- £250 MILLION To Turkey and Albania to help them join the EU.
- £300 MILLION fine a year until we meet 'Pollution targets' set out by the EU.
- £900 MILLION a Year to treat EU tourists on NHS
- EU gifted £22 BILLION of your taxpayers money to boost French economy.
- £300 MILLION costs to businesses for EU Red Tape
- £40 MILLION in lost revenue in EU student Loans which are unpaid and the students have disappeared back to the EU.
- £250 MILLION towards helping with costs of migrant crisis in Europe.
Plus:
- The EU Water Directive which makes it virtually impossible to dredge rivers flooding which has cost both people and insurance companies MILLIONS.
- 5% VAT higher costs than any other European country for our energy bills.
WHY DON'T THE REMAINERS MENTION ALL THIS? THESE ARE THE HIDDEN COSTS!
The £350 Million a week membership is only a FRACTION OF WHAT THE EU REALLY MAKES OUT OF THIS COUNTRY... because there are a lot more than I have put down here!

whats the source for this meds?

[Wormburner]

I came across it on Facebook the other day, some financier type bloke had posted it along with an article from Reuters

[Wiganer Ted]

If Reuters put it on facebook then it's hardly hidden.
Wormer of course hasn't mentioned the "hidden" benefits of being in the EU.
The IFS worked it out that the UK's nett cost to the EU was £5.3bn.

Old Wormer reads the Daily (UKIP News) Express.
Their proprietor is a financial backer of UKIP.

There'a only one person shows himself up over the EU Wormer and it;s you.
I thought (hoped) I was on your ignore list!
