Basically until the UK agrees to pay them what they think they're due,

This was the fait accompli which Davis was presented with on Monday
morning.

If you read the article some of the sums being mentioned as compo are
simply staggering i.e 100 billion

It's maybe no wonder a lot of people are trying to play this down.

So the EU position is "Pay us 100 billion or you have to stay in our
cartel (club or whatever)"?

But the 100 billion was just a down payment wasn;t it.
They are just like any other blackmailer.


Any sane person would treat this as a wind up or insanity.

I'd chage them rent on the EU buildings we helped to pay for.

Can I charge rent on all the UK buildings that my taxes have helped pay for?


100 Billion a day excluding VAT of course. If they don't like it
what will they do knock them down ?
