Trust the EU to reward failure and penalise success.

The answer is simple: Stop writing ALL the cheques and see how long it takes to cow the EU when it looses £8 billion net. We have the winning hand as a major net contributor trust Dave not to play it.
We are part of the EU club and as such knew this was coming and as such we can't just pick and choose what we want all the time and then not have what does not suit us.

If people don't like it then there is the ballot box but don't expect us to pull out of Europe anytime soon as it simply won't happen as the good majority of people in this country would rather have us in Europe negotiating rather then having certain xenophobic politicians and groups pulling a strop and constantly spouting that we should pull out of Europe as soon as possible.
