Thread: Cornwall demands to receive funding equivalent to the EU's

  1. #1

    Cornwall demands to receive funding equivalent to the EU's

    Cornwall voted LEAVE.

    http://www.itv.com/news/westcountry/...g-brexit-vote/




    Now that we know the UK will be leaving the EU we will be taking urgent steps to ensure that the UK Government protects Cornwall’s position in any negotiations.

    We will be insisting that Cornwall receives investment equal to that provided by the EU programme which has averaged £60M per year over the last ten years.

    – John Pollard, the Leader of Cornwall Council

    The EU membership cost us 0.36% of gdp, to leave is likely to cost us at least 5%, possibly more depending on which economists you listen to.

    I was honestly shocked when I put the radio on this morning and when I heard some of the people that voted to leave on why they voted to leave left me feeling even more bitter about it we should never of had a referendum (thanks Dave you twat) this should've been up to parliament to sort out it's what we elect them for to make these decisions I don't think we had enough knowledge to make this decision. god help us in the next general election labour are fecked

    Sad!y Jamie I agree. I have to live in this country for seven more years then I plan to retire and move abroad. I don't want to live in this backward and inward island any longer than I have to.

    They may well ask for more. Cornwall was earmarked to get 600m euros by 2020. Looks like they've cut their nose off to spite their face.

    All this lovely extra money we all have. Let's see how much of it goes to Cornwall.

    In true CCMB stye, let's use the ex-wife analogy.

    You and your wife buy a house together. Your father-in-law gives you the deposit. You get divorced and lose the house.

    You get married to a new woman. Where's my deposit?, you demand of your new father-in-law.

    What does daddy say?
