      "Revealed"
      "a new Unearthed investigation that traced the owners of more than 95% of UK quota holdings – including, for the first time, those of Scotland"
      "It reveals "
      "As Unearthed’s investigation reveals"
      "The latest revelations"
      "has uncovered "
      "Unearthed’s investigation"

      I gave up copying and pasting the "revelations".

      The "revelations" are published by the government yearly

        When out of the EU, at distance from the French, pesky foreigners gone, will people just run out of subjects to hate?

            Piffle. You seem obsessed with proving the "Little Englander" mentality, when in reality Britain has been reaching out to the world and welcoming foreigners for generations. Mainly through invasion and colonization, granted, but I'm sure we mean well at heart :-)

              Make no mistake, Brexit or not, the EU will be fingered as the source of all our troubles for decades to come.

              The only positive side of a no-deal Brexit would be to completely sever ties with the EU exposing the inability of our own government to deal with domestic matters, once they can't easily blame them on the EU.

              20'000 cops, new hospitals and a host of infrastructure projects, as if any of that was previously blocked by the EU...

                We can buy a lot of cops, hospitals and infrastructure with £8.9bn a year.
                (£8.9bn estimated net contribution to EU budget 2018)

                  £8.9bn sounds like a lot.

                  But it only represents 0.4% of GDP. (UK GDP was approx £2,250bn for 2018)

                  If Brexit has any negative effect on the economy, it could easily wipe out that supposed £8.9bn dividend.
                  Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.

                    It could. However it may not.

                      True.

                      But still, £8.9bn is small change for an economy the size of the UK.

                      Oh, and btw, I thought it was meant to save us £18.2bn. (£350m/week * 52 = £18.2bn)
