I think that is pretty straight forward to me! But the £350million has already been proven to be massively unnacurate the dignified don't even enter in the game

Originally posted by Y Ddraig Goch But the £350million has already been proven to be massively unnacurate No it hasn't. It's paid in arrears so yes we do hand over £350million a week. The debate should me more about what how much of that we get back, as does the method of its return really constitute to the reduction of this figure.

I don't think non British passport holders are allowed to join the armed forces unless under special circumstances, i.e. the Irish Guards and the Gurkhas. Bizarrely a Brexit vote be a step in that direction, not the other way round.

The debate should me more about what how much of that we get back, as does the method of its return really constitute to the reduction of this figure. The £350 million a week is wrong, that has been confirmed, it's an old figure from 2014 which is the latest accountable data. If you took the 2016 figure, amount the gross weekly contributions will turn out actually to be far higher. Talking millions to individuals is pointless as to us is sounds a colossal amount but when its national level it's nowhere near as big. I guess an analogy would be like you joining a business breakfast club, and it costs you £35 a week to be a member and for that, you get to trade which a bunch of other useless businesspeople who like you are unable to drum up the business without the pathetic breakfast club membership. You all meet in an incestuous little pit scratching each others back. After a few years in the club, you come to the realisation that you seem to be buying far more and giving far more services than you get in return and decide one day to leave. It's not until you leave, you realise there is, in fact, a far bigger better brighter real world out there, more profits, easier to deal with clients. Then a few weeks later you get a phone call from one of the other breakfast club members, saying he to decided to leave and would like to buy your service(s) again, and then another. Soon the breakfast club closes, you have twice as many clients and far happier, and all lived happily after.

Explain then, I'm sure we'd all love to know, how hundreds of people at the same time setup one petition?? At 10,000 signatures, government will respond to the petition At 100,000 signatures, this petition will be considered for debate in Parliament Usually at 10,000 signatures the petition gets some social media press where it starts to accelerate.

Well because 8000 people represents less than 0.001% of the population, so to claim it's representative of anything is just not true.
