That's like driving at 40 in a 30 zone, then moaning at someone who overtakes you doing 45, both are doing wrong but one isn't as naughty as the other?

No, it isn’t…
It’s like going to one restaurant where the Health Rating is 4 out of 5 and comparing it to another where it is 1 out of 5 - there’s a slight risk with the first meal, but eating at the second place will probably poison you with the ordure you’re digesting…
You’re doing the old Trump/Steve Bannon ploy - false equivalence…

The European Commission, the EU’s unelected executive body, has proposed a 2028–34 Multiannual Financial Framework worth 1.26 percent of EU gross national income (GNI). Britain’s latest GNI stands at £3.0 trillion (~$4.0 trillion). Apply the Commission’s own ratio to that figure, and the indicative gross burden is about £38 billion (~$50.3 billion) a year, or roughly £730 million (~$970 million) a week. That calculation sits upstream of receipts, the precise EU financing formula, and whatever terms an accession deal might eventually contain.

So is the basis for the figure true or not?
EU commission.

On 16 July 2025, the Commission presented its proposal for an ambitious and dynamic Multiannual Financial Framework (“MFF”) amounting to almost EUR 2 trillion(or 1.26% of the EU’s gross national income on average between 2028 and 2034)

Re: Why would UK want join the eu
Most are just upset Papa because their passport is now a different colour and they need to wait an extra 10 minutes to get through customs.

Do you mean the "extreme" violent left-wing looters and arsonists "protesting" in France et al?
Or do you mean the "extreme" right-wing protestors who have had enough of the invasion of Europe and are now demanding change through the ballot boxes of their countries?

Why should I mean one off the other. In my humble opinion one is as bad as the other. Same in USofA Trump or democratics not sure which I dislike more

Almost the same as siding with the EU or the USA . . . I'd rather stay independent and play one against the other

Customs, or border controls ?
We had no delays when we went to Spain in August.

The site you quoted, which was probably provided by the search algorithm which shows you things like you’ve seen before…
