Thank you, Alteclansing, for posting a link that very useful Daily Mail article.

The headline to the article says MPs voted for this - in fact many did not.

Here is a brief extract from the article:

"The reduction in the size of the rebate means Britain's annual contribution to the EU budget will rise to £10.2billion. Only £4.6billion will come back by way of Brussels spending. The new net contribution is double that in place before Mr Blair's deal. The EU will give Britain £582 per citizen - the lowest amount for any member state. The French will get £1,118 per head and the Irish £2,336. France is the largest overall recipient of EU funds, raking in £67billion over the next six years, compared with £35billion for the UK. This is largely because the country has more farmland than Britain and therefore benefits most from the Common Agricultural Policy."

Britannist adds: The sooner we get out of the EU the better. We have to get this sort of information (above) known to the voters.

Brittanist,

I`m not sure if it would be better to show COST per head for membership of this project. Some people might misinterpret the above figures as some largesse the EU bestows on us.

Lets just get out ! we can then tell the theiving euro swine to stick their rebates where the sun dont shine

Facts:
1) British MPs have violated the British law, which allows them to spend their taxpayers' cash in Britain but not abroad.
2) The CAP mechanism cannot be reformed, because it is unreformable. It can either be preserved or abolished. The CP should ask that the CAP mechanism be abolished.
3) The British government was never obliged to reduce the British rebate. It could have vetoed the budget that was actually enacted.
4) Poland spends 3 times more to finance the CAP mechanism than it does to 'finance' the British rebate. It will not be paid payments equal to those that France receives annually, until 2011.
5) The reduction of the rebate means that beginning this year, Britain will be paying the EU 8400 million EUR PY net, almost as much as Germany (8500 million EUR PY net).
6) The review doesn't mean that the CAP mechanism will be abolished. France can still veto any proposals, and will certainly veto any CAP mechanism abolition proposal (unless it is given a refund).

Yes Robin - I would like each voter in the UK to know how much s/he pays from her/his taxes every year to the EU; how much the EU is costing him/her and his/her family and to be informed that alot of this money is subsidising farmers in France and the 'Med' states who then compete within the UK against our own farmers.

Britannist

I agree 100%.

The British annual contribution costs every British citizen (whether he pays taxes or not) 100 GBP PA. EU red tape costs every British citizen (whether he pays taxes or not) 1000 GBP PA. That's a combined total 1100 GBP annual cost per capita, and it doesn't even include other costs of the EU.
