And this from @JasonJHunter

Let's just NAIL THIS shall we? Does the UK get value for money from the EU?

"We pay in more than we get back" cry the Brexiteers...

"the UK could lose one hundred billion pounds from the economy and a million unemployed" replies the CBI.

So lets take a look at the FACTs

According to Page 40 of Her Majesties Treasury report at December 2015 entitled “European Union Finances 2015”, the UKs contribution to the European Union (our ‘membership fee’) that Brexiteers tell us we could *save* and spend on building new hospitals,

3/ schools and the like is £12.36 billion in 2015. *This figure is calculated as a percentage of Gross National Income, or GNI.

The United Kingdom received an ‘instant rebate’ of £4.86 billion. (not sent to the EU)

This is calculated before we make any payment at all which means that the cash amount that we sent to Brussels last year was just £7.5 billion. To put this in perspective, the Department for Communities and Local Government statistical dataset of December 3rd 2015,

there are 27.4 million households in the UK.

The UK cash contribution therefore is £273 per household per year, or using an average of 2.34 people per household (DCLG figures) £116.97 per person.

So starting with £7.5 billion, lets look at some of what we get back:

UK Farmers receive direct payments of just under £4 billion through the Common Agricultural Policy and Agriculture funding.

The European Social Fund which support charities across the UK with a variety of grants, and the UK Cohesion Fund that funds various infrastructure developments in the UK contribute around £1.96 billion (total of £11.8bn between 2014 and 2020).

And a further £108 million is paid back to the UK in grants towards a number of other projects.

So from the £7.5bn we pay, we get back around £6bn in direct cash payments, leaving a net cash difference of £1.5 billion per year.

So the UK pays net £1.5 billion a year and we get back at least £127.1 billion into GDP from trade, and a further £320.1 billion in EU related FDI…. creating UK jobs.

So far that’s an annual benefit to the UK economy overall of £128.6 billion.

And Brexiteers continue to cry about our 'membership fee'? They just dont understand whats going on around them or where their jobs came from!

Being a member of the European Union is a bit like going to a sandwich shop and buying a £3 sandwich with a £5 note and getting back over £1,000 in change!
