Seriously though I don’t care that much. These figures aren’t that much in the scale of government budgets. If leaving the EU costs 1% of GDP a year over several years then that would cost us a lot more. If it increased GDP by 1% over several years then it would pay for itself. Obviously the increase doesn’t go right into the government coffers but still...

Also I imagine the bill is spread across several years. Still a lot but like the £350 million figure a bit silly.
