Re: EU demand extra £1.7bn from UK

I'm sure there's any number of treaties that we've signed over the decades/centuries that we've reneged on or been overtaken by events yet we still trade with the rest of the world. How could EU treaties, especially the disadvantageous ones be any different?

Never a wise tactic with staunch UKIPers....

However, we are in the modern world, and no longer have gunships/massed armies to reinforce our treaty breaches.....

OK - two questions

a) if UKIP win the next election, what will their process be to leave the European Union
b) if whoever wins the next election holds a referendum, and the majority vote to stay in, what will UKIP do?

Over to you....

Ask for another referendum with easier questions? It's been tried before you know...

Over to you....
is this you starting with the facts ? [ the new thing your trying out we discussed it earlier ]
if it is then i must point out that asking questions is not presenting "facts"its more like fishing for answers.
a- ukip will not win the next general election that's for the future
b-still exist campaigning to exit the eu [ its still an un-polishable turd but you already know that you just don't want to admit it ].
c- that's another question

So they'll be campaigning for something that (in Hugh's hypothesis) the majority of people don't want? Way to win votes there....

There's a big difference between that and having a single policy that you're known for which is something the majority don't want.

Re: EU demand extra £1.7bn from UK

I really like how UKIP have disrupted the political orthodoxy.

Doesn't change that I find the vast majority of their policies alarming.

EDIT: The more I've done my homework the clearer it's become that, for me, the option that most matches the new, improved Carl who escaped London, is the Greens.
