Drawing on funds that you paid into and the receipts are essentially the money you put in is not hypocritical.
Forcing people who leave a club to pay 50-100 billion pounds on the way out the door for arbitrary made up claims is perhaps. While a good chunk of money is allocated towards retiring UK officials in the EU, most of it is not. Lawmakers from EU countries are literally on the public record stating 'Making them pay!' and coming up with arbitrary numbers of '10s of bilions' on the spot, out of thin air, not based on any rational reconciliation of funds, which is my view, blatant corruption.
- ketzu 5y agoThis seems like a very onesided display as the EU claim is 40.8bn (less than your 50-100bn) and the UK recognizes around 35-39bn of those, so it doesn't seem to be as much fantasy or malicious, just regular negotiation.
