Bulletguy Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 A total of €10.9bn (£8.4bn) was awarded to Britain for the period 2014-20, and the government allocated the money based on an equality assessment. The assessments were influenced by the GDP of local areas, as well as the proportion of people who are unemployed or claiming incapacity benefit. It is funded by the EU budget, to which Britain contributed £13bn - or £250m per week - in 2015. Overall, Britain's €10bn figure equates to an average of €170 per person, which is the fifth lowest in the EU. Bargain.....or as Johnson once wrote (before he lost the plot), "This is a market on our doorstep, ready for further exploitation by British firms: the membership fee seems rather small for all that access. Why are we so determined to turn our back on it? Indeed. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/01/mapped-where-in-the-uk-receives-most-eu-funding-and-how-does-thi/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barryd999 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Total crap. Any organisation can apply for EU Funding through the EU tender portal. Trust me, ive done it. You are sometimes more likely to be successful with that route than government funding depending on where it is and what it is. As ive said several times, The EU is often more likely to fund projects in some areas both geographically and on the type of project than the government is.

No you still are not showing where "the EU tells us where to spend" the money. You cannot back up your claim with credible sourced evidence as it doesn't exist!

You're being very silly now but if you want to use that daft analogy, why would you go and ask the EU when the money is already in your "bank". In other words....the money is here, in UK. Fact of the matter is EU funding in UK has been very substantial....just look at what Huddersfield benefited from and that's just one place. Besides funding, Britons have had the freedom to live, work and retire anywhere in Europe.......but you want to stop that.....but want 'specialty' and exemption for yourself to continue overstaying in Spain each year. You can't have it both ways and you voted to end that for British so it's going to end for you too. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/eu-what-has-european-union-done-for-us-david-cameron-brexit-a6850626.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you suggest it works then? I fancy setting up a million pound Rock God studio so I should just be able to go to the EU and say "Oi EU! I need a million quid of our money back please to build a Rock God Studio, you cant say no as its our money". Its another avenue of funding just like Government or Lottery funding but they often fund (as I keep saying) projects in areas that otherwise get knocked back by UK government funding. Do you remember that film from Grimsby a while back posted on here where they were banging on about Brexit from their wonderful spanking new fish market factory?
