  34.  @angrybrit7331  It's not the UK government that decides how to spend the money that comes back from the EU. It goes to projects and places in the UK that qualify under EU rules. If our government had the chance they would not spend it to rejuvanate poorer areas, as they haven't done so with the 99% of UK spending that comes under their own controls. Some of these places don't seem to realise where much of the investment comes from and they will lose it once we leave the EU. It shouldn't be looked at narrowly as a monetary transaction. We gain a lot economically by being in the EU as our economy prospers from it, more than if we were out, with no contributions to make. It's just that our government chooses not to share that prosperity fairly. The UK contributions saved from being out would more than be swallowed up by trying to shore up the areas hit by being out of that market. That's if the government were minded to use ithe money that way. They are not known for being too generous our government, because the Tories believe in 'shrinking the state' and that means not putting so much money into it as well as selling parts off or privatising services. It's not the rich that rely on public services and the jobs they provide so much so it's not the rich who will take a hit from coming out of the EU. Private sector businesses will also be hit, but rich investors don't care as they will be able to move their investments to parts of the word that are more booming and park their profits more in tax avoidance areas. There's nothing patriotic about a hard Brexit. It will hit the country hard, but rich Brexiteers hide true motives behind the fig leaf that it will somehow be better for Britain. Voters need to evict bad governments and vote in people who believe in creating a fairer society. That's the way to start to mend the situation. It's quite impressive really how Brexiteers manage to focus voters wrath on particular elements, in order to gain their support, whilst not letting them see the overall picture.
