I think we make a net contribution of about £6bn a year for access to a free trade area into which we export around £274bn of goods, a net fiscal contribution of £20bn by EU migrants to the Treasury and on average contributing £2300 more per year than a UK born adult. It’s all a big merry go round that everyone benefits from in different ways.

The £6bn also acts as a means of compensating some counties where we are taking parts of their skilled workforce, who have desirable qualities critical to our economy in areas such as healthcare.

For reference projected UK Central government spending in 2016-17 was £772bn.
Well you said the EU is transparent - I provided an example of where they were not being at all transparent and then it uses it's Judicial power to put a block on challenging any further requests - this is total corruption!
