#6 Oh I know that.

It's just the EUSSR RUINED the UK's fishing.

Look at the difference between Iceland's fisheries and the UK's

#9 Farage had a good laugh at that poor schoolmarm's expense and she just didn't get it. He looked like a schoolboy when the last class of the school year is about to be dismissed and the teacher doesn't understand why he's so happy.

#10 Well he didn't say goodbye to his fat lifelong EU pension, did he?

178,657 Euro transition money
20 months full monthly remuneration of 8,932,86 per month
A pension (paid when he turns 53) of 6,253 Euro per month.

#14 I suspect that at some point in the separation those payments and pensions will be cut off for Brits, who won’t be there to vote against it — and if he is the least bit clever, so does former MEP Farage.

#15 EC showing that he and the EUSSR don't understand pensions.

Good for him.

Or good on him, as the Brits would say.

He could donate the money to other EUxiteers in Europe for as a long as the money lasts.

#17 You assume the EU will still be there in 8 years

There may still be a hollowed out shell with its own secretariat full of cushy phony baloney jobs called the European Union.

You know, like NATO.

Or perhaps it will be reduced to the territory of its (more or less) Charlemagnic core, ie the European Coal and Steel Community of 1951.
