You couldn't make this shit up - £350m, £250m what's the difference eh?
I love the comments below - something like "Get us out so we can trade with the rest of the world" - "We already trade with the rest of the world, we've now got to spend years renegotiating deals with the rest of the world on worse terms"
They really are fucking idiots

Had we crashed out with no deal on 31st October, which I suppose is still not out of the question, I've not heard any of the advocates of that outcome go into any detail about the conversation we would (presumably) then begin to have with the EU on the morning of 1st November. You'd have to assume there is/always has been a plan in place so that no time would be wasted, and that we have assurances from the EU27 that they would be available should that situation arise.
Seems too blindingly obvious to even merit the question, but I have absolutely no faith in our politicians.

Let’s wait and see how much the net effect is to the NHS.
When that toad Gove was Education Secretary he disingenuously stood up in parliament and announced how much extra was going in to the schools per pupil. Of course he was right they had.
What he didn’t announce were the cuts in the other areas of education such as school repairs budgets and traded services etc. which resulted in a net effect of schools being worse off. It’s true that some of this was via the LEA but that was because they’d had their budgets cut.
I’ll believe a net real time increase of £394m per week when I see it.
