lies about spending the money currently given to the EU on the NHS
What they said is that in the longer run, money that used to go to the EU could be redirected to domestic priorities, including the NHS. And many current destinations of “EU funding” are quite silly indeed—do you think paying wealthy English landowners to mismanage their land is a good use of funding, whether “EU” or otherwise?
I’m cynical enough to think that big landowners will still get paid to mismanage their land. They managed to get the EU to do it, I suspect they’ll manage to get Britain outside the EU to do it.
I’m intrigued to find out Cumming’s solution to the political classes, I’ve not found it in all the verbiage yet though.
