Railway employees on massively higher salaries than university professors,
95% non-contributory pensions for life at early retirement age (hell, this sounds like Brasil's 100% for politicians!),
hairdressers in the Essential protected employment category . .

Did they think that the EU budget was a crock of somebody else's gold just there for taking? Patently - Yes.

And when the EU, etc, says 'It's payback time',

and, in any case, 'sovereignty' is just a state of mind.

- 'you took it, you spent it (badly), you pay it back' seems a totally appropriate maxim.
