Wow.... the big red brexit bus has crashed into the magic money tree.... £20bn a year extra for the NHS ....the PM has said its a "brexit dividend" ...yet it's double what we pay in now.
Translation = more borrowing, higher taxes

Well she did say partially funded from the "Brexit dividend" and the final bill will be nearer £25 billion, £20 billion is for NHS England, the devolved powers will get their own settlement based on the Barnet formula.==================================

Maybe it includes the £9bn a year the Government will reap in import tariffs under WTO terms? Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto

Tariffs are used to restrict imports by increasing the price of goods and services purchased from overseas and making them less attractive to consumers.
So, we pay more for our imported goods so the government can receive more money? Makes sense...
For the record, I have no idea how import tarrifs work. The above is my simplistic POV My D3 Build Thread

No she's been quite clear it will be tax rises

So is that £9bn from brexit savings? The rest from taxes? If so what is left for everything else? What about the poor farmers and their subsidy? ...oh wait sorry did I say poor farmers ? Not met one yet

And what about the other things they promised to maintain funding for? Would that be a politician's promise...?Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

The £9bn (well £10bn) is AFTER taking off all the amounts that are assumed to continue to be paid to our poor farmers etc, so worry not! Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto

I fully welcome any additional spending in public services even if my taxes rise ...but to pretend this is from brexit is total tosh, smoke & mirrors to save the faces of Johnson and Gove.

I have met hill farmers in Cumbria and North Wales. There’s no Brexit dividend for them. BoJo, JRM and the other clowns in the troop don’t care for them, and never have done.
Brexit is not an economic project. It’s political. Subsidiarity, and all that. 1992 etc.
The world moved on, but Boris et al would have you believe you can drag it back ... waayyy back, when the map of the world was mostly pink, ....
I could go on but ... etc, etc, ...
Enjoy the “dividend” for the NHS, a figment of May’s imagination (she’s not stupid; she doesn’t believe it; she just needs YOU to believe it) and it’s perfectly believable if you believe in faery tales. Brexit ... Yay!!!MY91 110 CSW, so long ago I can barely remember it - sold
