You are very misformed. We put much less money into the EU than we get back. That is a fact.


check yourself, we pay a hell of a lot more than we get (blue is how much is paid, yellow is how much is received)

And being called a chav and slag because they can't get their facts right is totally ok is it?

Also I do not feel the need to assert my race. I would love to be darker skinned instead of pale as . But I am not because I have Irish Celt bloodline.

And nope I do not have to prove I'm white. I am just showing the facts that those two high school drop outs got wrong.


1. clearly by your previous posts you feel a need to assert your race.
2. neither of them are high school dropouts, you're again assuming that people who disagree with you are uneducated which is a hurtful, intolerant stereotype.

The people that voted to leave were not very educated about the situation.


it's a rather unfair assumption to make that everyone who disagrees with you politically is less educated, perhaps you should learn to be more tolerant of other idealogies


MischiefX says

Most of them voted out because of the immigration issue. They think that people will come over here and take advantage of our benefit system but the fact is the benefit system relies on the money that comes from the EU too. So there will be more cuts to the benefits that they are recieving.


we lose no money by leaving the EU and we get to control our own laws, what's wrong with that?

Our NHS is on its knees already and now will not recieve money from the EU. There are no resources within the NHS to help. There are barely any beds in the hospital so operations are cancelled every day. When my Mum had cancer in 2014/15 she was stage 4 and so had to stay in hospital to have chemo because she had to have 5 days of chemo that was pumped in 24 hours a day and she had to call the Oncology Ward on the morning that she was due to go in to ask if there was a bed available. She was in the hospital last week and there was a man in his late 80's on a trolley in the corridor that had been there for ten hours. At least three people at my local hospital have died in the ambulance as the ambulance had been parked up for 8 hours waiting for them to be seen by drs and they were emergency cases that could not have just sat and waited in the waiting room. These are all things that are happening while we are still getting money from the EU. It's common sense that if you take money out of something that is already on its knees they'll be in an even worse situation.


okay i see that all of these are essentially the same point.

we give more to the EU than we get. with correct reallocation of funds after leaving, nothing the EU has given us will be lost and we will have even more money.

For a start I have a good friend who's job it is to devide the EU money into different areas/schemes etc. They had so many plans that were going to be amazing for the country - state of the art schools {new schools in wales at least have not been built since the 70's}. They have just built an amazing school in Ammanford and there were plans to build more throughout England and Wales. Now there is no money for them so those schools are not going to be built.


for starters we haven't actually left the EU yet so if the money isn't there then it's the EU's own fault. secondly, we give substantially more money to the EU than we get back, so as long as the money is allocated accordingly, there'll still be the money there for those things.


MischiefX says

There are schemes also that would generate money from tourists. For e.g. one of them was an overhaul of Swansea Bay. It was going to be a landmark and would have generated so much money for the area which obviously in turn would create funds to put into other local schemes like Youth Clubs, Dr's surgery, council services.


as previously stated, we put much more money into the EU than we get back, so with the money we save by not being a part of it, we can reallocate it to fund all the things that the EU did and still have money left to spare.

True celts are about as white as Sicilians, no one thinks Sicilians are white except Sicilians, the same for celts.

Here's the actual facts for you guys about what a true celt is -

Please do your research guys. You are completely wrong. My blood line is Irish Celtic. My family are welsh with Irish bloodline. Also we are RH Negative which means we do not carry the Rhesus gene in our genetic make up.

Irish and Scottish Celts fair skinned, ginger and freckley with green or eyes but so are Rh Neg people typically.

The concept of celts, italians, slavs etc, being 'white' regardless of what their skin-tone would imply is a modern conception of whiteness. Historically speaking Cory is correct (the best kind of correct.)
