Mick has already said it but it bears repeating: there is no such thing as EU funds. We are a net contributor by quite some margin. Every penny spent in Wales (yet with that disingenuous blue flag forcibly glued to it), can be more than matched by spending from the U.K. government or by the devolved executive.

Bit like the question to Leave, eh?
Nope. The question on the ballot was debated at length, across a variety of media. Sooner or later you’re going to have to accept that a national debate took place yet at the end of it, most people disagreed with you.
