Observations

All things being equal, Poland will shortly have an EU fanatic as its Prime Minister in the form of Donald Tusk, the anti-Brexit and (frankly) anti-British former EU Council President. In time we will once again start hearing his disparaging and condescending remarks about the United Kingdom, whenever he visits his chums in Brussels.

In this series of three reports we have to an extent launched a ‘pre-emptive strike’. This has been aimed at Mr Tusk and his EU-loving comrades, not at the Polish people. It is also aimed at all the Remainer-Rejoiners and the large elements of the British media who have such a rose-tinted view of the European Union.

Funded by the British, credit taken by the EU

For decades the UK has been the second-largest net contributor to the EU Commission’s coffers (after Germany) and is still the largest European funder of the military defence of Europe.

Take a trip across Poland and you will find many glossy and impressive infrastructure projects displaying “Funded by the EU” plaques fixed to the walls. In reality these would not have been possible without the UK’s funding. Have the British people ever been given any credit? No. Can Remainer-Rejoiners point to a magnificent railway terminus (such as the one we featured above) or underground system in the UK, funded by the EU? No.

In reality the EU has been a very large wealth distribution project – something never explained to the British people. With urgent needs at home, the UK gave freely to the EU to provide facilities in many poorer EU countries which people can only dream of having at home. Spanking new motorways in Poland, potholes and crumbling Victorian buildings in the UK.

As we showed yesterday, more than three times as many Poles used this to move to the UK, to say nothing of the 1.5 million Romanians and others. This will be the subject of a Facts4EU.Org report in the coming days.

If this 3-part series of reports (and the thousands of others we have published) have been of interest, we sincerely hope you will make a donation to keep us going. Without you we will no longer exist – it’s that simple.

We must get reports like this out there

Reports like the one above take far longer to research, write and produce than many people realise. If they were easy, readers would see other organisations also producing these daily. However, there’s little point in the Facts4EU.Org team working long hours, seven days-a-week, if we lack the resources to promote them effectively – to the public, to MPs, and to the media. This is where you come in, dear reader.

Facts4EU.Org needs you today

We are a 'not for profit' team (we make a loss) and any payment goes towards the actual work, not plush London offices, lunch or taxi expenses, or other luxuries of some organisations.

We badly need more of our thousands of readers to become members, to support this work. Could this be you, today? It's quick and easy, we give you a choice of two highly secure payment providers, and we do NOT ask you for further support if you pay once. We just hope you keep supporting us. Your membership stays anonymous unless you tell us otherwise.

Please don't assume that other people will keep us going - we don't receive enough to survive and we need your help today. Could you help us? We rely 100% on public contributions from readers like you.
