Let's face it, this is a bit of a nonsense isn't. We have spend what two years focusing on one issue while the country is in a mess and getting worse. Time to go to the EU and say some of us got it wrong and all of us want to stay.

Amazing what £60m of EU funding over 2 years will do to your perspective, eh? :thumbsup:

If only these Brexit voting regions knew what they'll be losing.

What a surprise! An EU funded think-tank repeating the same scaremongering lies they've been spouting since before BREXIT Day, 2016. Equally shocking that the anti-British BBC should give their propaganda such prominence.

Probably why they are restricting our movement, so we can't leave as easily and have to stay and rent from them at extortionate prices.
This is all before you mention the shitshow that is the environment! The best thing for the UK would be for the boomers to just **** off.

The thing that gets me is they voted out on mass and will now get 3% increase in pension next year, they are nicely protected with the increasingly unaffordable triple lock. Meanwhile teachers, nurses, ambulance staff got f..all.

They need to share the pain they've created. #selfishgeneration

It wouldn't surprise me if they made us take on more debt to pay for their pensions!

We are, there isn't a pool of cash funding pensions, money just comes out of the pot and other things will suffer as a result

When did the BBC and the truth collide? Organisations with their snouts in the EU trough giving out anti-BREXIT propaganda. The BBC is as trustworthy on BREXIT as The Sun were on Hillsborough; although at least The Sun thought it was printing the truth.
Why this feeble government doesn't scrap the licence fee I and millions of others do not know.

Don't be ridiculous...yawn...

Brexiters like me knew exactly what we were doing and you will thank us in the long run. Remoaners do make me laugh. Get a grip.

That’s simply not true.
Chilled New Zealand Lamb does get air freighted to here and Europe(as elsewhere) it costs more to transport than the frozen by boat stuff but it arrives and is still sold at a price that is competitive enough for the consumer wanting to buy it.

It is also funded by the UK. This is what the EU said about the OECD in 2015.
The EU and its Member States are the biggest
contributors to the OECD budget but some countries such as the U.S. seem to maintain a
dominant position in the Organisation. Moreover, the EU’s coordination system is not
adapted to the new conditions in the global governance architecture, undermining the EU’s
ability to speak with one voice. Although the OECD’s scope covers 99 % of the EU’s
exclusive and shared competences and focuses on a wider area than trade, in particular on
economic policies and taxation, the EU’s position is formulated by the Commission’s DG
Trade and in the Council’s Trade Committee in a very informal way, as there is no Working
Group on the OECD. The parliamentary oversight is rather weak as the EU delegates in the
OECD from the European Commission, the European Central Bank (ECB) and the European
External Action Service (EEAS) only report back to their hierarchy. The OECD’s opaque
working methods as well as external stakeholders’ limited say in its decision-making
mechanism is in contrast with the EU’s quest for greater transparency and enhanced
involvement of the civil society. Moreover, the OECD standards seem to be beneficial to G7
and G20 Member States, while the smaller EU Member States or non-OECD EU Member
States could be excluded from important decisions. At the same time, due to the OECD’s
asymmetrical geometry, non-OECD Members with weaker democratic credentials such as
China might be able to push for standards, which could undermine the EU citizens’ rights.

I have highlighted the bit that sounds like a Eurosceptic Tory writing on the EU. The EU decided it needed to be more involved with the OECD, rather than try and quit it though.

BBC, ITV, Sky and C4 news are all regulated by Ofcom. To compare with the Sun and Hillsboro is ridiculous
