We're a net contributor.

Anything we 'got' from the EU we are now free to double spending on or spend it where we think it should be spent.

Still you need to remember that this money, doesnt just go into a pit.
Its used for things that benefit all the countries of the EU.  Alot of that, was focused in area's that where in the UK.

So even if you spent ~8 bn / year after the rebate the UK had, the actually "loss" is alot less than that.
Also to put things into perspective, this is probably like 0.2% of the UK's GDP.

Lets not blow it out of perprotions, the amount of money spent on the EU is tiny and meaningless for the UK.
And the benefits it got, probably heavily outweighted the costs it paid.

"we can spend this money better ourselves" mentality is stupid imo, I honestly doubt if thats even true.

UK economy used to benefit a NET £70bn per year from EU membership... anything else is pure speculation based on hopes that what comes next will be better...

well, at least now they'll have to find someone else to blame for their shit, my prediction is that the country's problems will be more real, I really hope I'm wrong

the European UK is sacrificed for a global one... good luck with that, Londonistan in the making will get a speed boost

Trump wanted NHS, now it's chlorinated chicken, coming soon onto your tables, to replace cheap high standard fruits from EU countries whose prices will now rise for the sake of dropping the high EU standards... that's how fcked up things are in reality, and that goes without even mentioning Scotland... :/
