That’s because you have a sad and impoverished conception of what’s truly valuable.

There’s really no point rehearsing the arguments for breaking free of EU. If you’re still determined that everything of worth about this country’s heritage and future prospects can be reduced to a tabloid-friendly piece of division designed to induce the hard-of-thinking into believing Big Bad Boris is going to raid their bank balances to the tune of a grand a year, then I have to say I’m content leave you in your misery.

Me, I’m quite happy that the amount we’re talking about is, firstly, nowhere near as noticeable to the average citizen as the “£1,200 per person” is designed to imply, and, secondly, is more than a bargain as the price of national freedom to design and pursue our own future outside the sclerotic EU.
