The rebate (the bit which most obviously makes Johnson’s claim a lie) has nothing to do with this.

I’d expect folk to know this by now, but maybe my expectations are unrealistic.

The rebate is nonsensical. And so is the UK funding.

If we dont pay the EU £350 million pounds per week because of the rebate. (Our own money that they knock off the bill) then, on the same terms the EU doesn't fund or invest in the UK. We just pay less per week.

Boris has manipulated £350 million per week figure, but so do the EU.
They dont really give us anything. We just pay less than is quoted. And the EU decides what we spend some of our own money on.

I'm quite sure this was a brexiteer argument originally and it's gone full circle

Ok, there’s an argument that, purely in terms of contributions to the EU pot, we “lose out”. The counter arguments being the intrinsic financial benefits of being an EU member, and the fact that many people believe the EU redistributes the money in a far more fair and even manner than any British govt would.

However, none of this explains how you got from this...

What’s your source for the EU manipulating these figures?

I don’t doubt they do, btw, it’s just I’m not sure their “lies” were as prominent or egregious as Johnson’s.

Edit - and it’s still a leap from “I believe Johnson is a liar” to “I’m happy for the EU to tell equivalent lies”.

(for that matter, it’s a leap from my comment re hyperbole to “I believe Johnson is a liar”,but I’ll give you that one since your conclusion turned out to be accurate, this time)

If you read carefully, you’ll notice that all other quote edits were done to mock Ringo, who did it deliberately.

Since when was Ringo a remainer?

Edit - good use of “some” btw. Well done. Still no need for the scare quotes, though. Keep at it - you’ll get there eventually.

The net value of our membership to the EU was calculated at between £62 Billion and £78 Billion a year by the CBI in 2016. So whether you go with Boris' £18 Billion figure, or the more realistic £12 Billion one, we're still quids in.

Yep im sure there is some stuff they could rightly go at Corbyn with but my point wasnt really about Corbyn.

It was just an example of what I see a lot on here whereby a lot of the brexiteers and right wingers (not all) do just repeat stuff they've read on really biased and disingenuous news/media sites without any regard for its accuracy.

Then if someone tries to get into an evidence based discussion they either deflect on to something else, just side step the conversation or just reiterate the lies. The same rubbish is then regurgitated again and again even when it has been shown to be false

At least most of the Remain/liberal/left leaning posters try to respond to questions and try to show their thinking and sources. A lot of topics/opinions are not black and white and comes down to opinion so when both sides debate in good faith in an adult manner acknowledging the others arguments and countering them we can see some really good discussions

As said with a lot of the right wing idiots and I have no qualms about labeling them idiots genuine discussion is not possible

This is symbolic of discourse in general across the spectrum since Brexit although Im fully aware away from this forum there are plenty of idiots on the left who are just as bad. On this board however the majority of the brain donors definitely are on the right wing / hard Brexit side

I said you were correct in saying that people in and out of public office could be sued for libel - that’s on a par with you pointing out that the earth is round.

Do we all have to seriously point it out to you ?!!!

Look back at why I said one of your posts was correct (nobody was arguing with you about that one) and whilst your other ones prove beyond doubt you are thick as mince.

As for the other thread - well done in picking out one post amongst thousands - as usual you completely miss the point...just because you get the odd thing correct doesn’t mean you weren’t wrong in the other 99% of your posts on that thread as myself and everyone else on the thread pointed out to you.

No.

However, those typing liable....do you mean libel?

I think Boris is being charged with 'misconduct in a public office'. Where has libel come from?
This charge is currently being brought under Civil Law, not Criminal Law.
I am not quite sure how the £350m claim has anything to do with his duties as Mayor of London.
So why would he be guilty of misconduct in a public office?
Still a judge seems to think there is a case to answer.

Boris should have qualified it by saying 'But we do get quite a bit of it back'.
Was it just Boris driving around in that bus? Did Gove never ride on that bus?
