It seems the UK government are still happy to take handouts from the EU coffers. Shocking really, as an EU taxpayer I could be enraged by this, but as the video explains this was all in the withdrawal agreement.

Hope the promise of EU flags being raised around the UK doesn't enrage our resident jingoists too much.

This is the government page on the fund.

Cant seem to find any coverage in the UK papers though?

Yet £54 million to France for border patrols is a huge waste of taxpayers money? Good to know we can officially call it a pittance.

So the 54 million for France to assist our borders is meaningless, not something we should get vexed over, and just 2 modern countries working stuff out?

Behave 54 million gets you fuck all just get you get hot under the under the collar over such a small amount in a governments budget.

14 Billion a year bill divided by 365 and your worried about such pittance. 😳

Why were there loads of posts on it with people frothing over the expense then?
 
Presumably this was agreed before we left the EU so I'm not sure what the imaginary fuss is all about.

The number of people who have expressed horror at the thought of the EU logo is precisely zero. The number of people who wanted to pile on to shout 'gammon' at other posters appears to be greater than zero.

State of that Youtube channel though... 🤣
