You are both spreading misinformation. Desperate times?
"The CBI conducts a number of monthly and quarterly economic surveys of businesses, on manufacturing, retail, and service sectors, which are an important bellwether of UK business and economic trends. These surveys are used by the European Commission to enable it to collect robust European-wide economic data, as it does from all the 28 EU member states. As part of this, the CBI takes part in a competitive tendering process (every 4 years) to provide data on the UK economy on a regular basis, and as a result the European Commission currently contributes to some of the financing of these economic surveys. This amounts to around £148,000 per year, representing around 0.6% of our annual income. It is a measure of the reliability of our data that we are able to do this, and any money received in this way is ring-fenced for this purpose."

What about Deloitte who constructed the 'leaked memo' feeding anti Brexit propaganda to the Times? How many millions have they trousered from the EU? The pro EU Times happy to publish EU propaganda as fact which the BBC follow up on with glee. More examples of corporate cronyism.

You have not answered my previous questions on why you are so enthralled with the CBI of late, when historically you have appeared to oppose them, and their members, on many matters?

Now Richard Branson's Virgin Group is bankrolling a campaign to reverse Brexit. Again, big business trying to undo democracy for its own gain!

IF proven wrong – you are assuming this is the case – then yes, they should pay the money owed (£150k is what's demanded).

Anyway, nice move of the goal posts to get away from the fact that big business colludes with the corporate racket that is the EU.

I'm not saying they won't be found guilty but... The story in your link says... "If the conclusions of the external audit are confirmed next week..." "Ukip could be forced to pay back more than €170,000 (£146,185)" I believe The European Parliament Bureau then confirmed the auditors' findings last week Edited by legaleagle (25 Nov 2016 10.14am)

Edited by nickgusset (24 Nov 2016 1.49pm) EVERY single one of your posts is designed to get a reaction, including the one above. so join the Troll Club! You are not blessed with advanced mathematical skills and have spent your adult life teaching infants finger painting and plasticine skills. Whereas I obtained good grades in my A Levels for Pure Maths and Applied Maths, spending my adult life in financial services and obtained the equivalent of a degree by study and experience. Yet here you are lecturing me on economics with the knowledge you've gleaned from BBC and your numpty union chums. -.-'
