The post you are reporting:
Mark, what you are essentially saying, is: if sovereign states don't always sign of their own accounts, then why should the EU?
As for the EU funding farmers in the Mediterranean area with British, German and Scandinavian monies,why not say outright that the British, German and Scandinavian economies fund these farmers?
And may-be expect these farmers to say thank-you to us in return, and pay it back to us.
Incidentally, the British Government is writing off one funding scheme after another in Britain, such as training programmes for people to find work.
The money ain't there any more for these luxuries, and I daresy before long we'll be telling the farmers of other European countries to milk their cows by hand, if they haven't got the money to buy the machinery.
Better than milking us!
