It's like you giving me £500, I then give you £200 of it back and then have the cheek to tell you what to buy with it.
Have the government committed to replacing those funds when they have been lost? Essentially cutting out the middle man (the EU) and funding those projects directly? I've seen nothing to suggest they've even promised to look at doing that.
