What do you have against helping the UK's dairy farmers, who, between
them, will receive the third largest handout from the new measures?

Like the steel industry, which it is proposed should get £130m of

Y'see, that's the thing with "MILLIONS OF POUNDS!"

It's very easy to forget that £130m is only two quid per head per year,
while £400m is six quid per head per year - or 50p per head per month.
Less than two bloody pence per head per day.

That is disingenuous. You KNOW that the EU works by making national
governments enact legislation on its behalf so that the illusion of
sovereignty is preserved. And that it levies a massive contribution from
the national governments who are left to find ways to raise it.

It has been estimated that corruption in the EU itself is less than
0.2%, as compared to an estimated 0.44% in the UK, which came out best
among EU member states.

That half is welcome to purchase such milk. The other half can continue paying the current cost. It's one thing to say the above, but it tends not to translate into action most of the time.

Changing the subject because you don't like the responses? If
we wanted more taxation we'd vote socialist. I'm perfectly willing for

I'm not complaining about anything, just pointing
out that no party won that particular election.

There was no election involved and the european
parliament that decided on those subsidies doesnt
even get to write any legislation, all it ever gets
to do is either confirm or refuse what some unelected
bureaucrats propose.
