At the risk of... oh, you know. THIS is what I responded to (posting it again!):
"pete: These EU funds came from the U.K., we sent them to Brussels, they sent less of them back. Merseyside has received no funds that were generated by or were given as a gift from the EU.....it was our own money... you will find this out soon enough when you are a net contributor to the club........
Your reply: What a terribly selfish attitude to have."
I suggest you give it a rest. What I quoted of pete above is fact. We contribute a certain amount; we get a certain amount back as rebate (not the full amount). I reply, you said 'What a terribly selfish attitude to have'. Now that's pretty clear to me...
You launched this attack and you demand I give it a rest ? Get a grip.
I've explained several times now where 'selfish' came from. It seems to have hit a sore spot with you so you've gotten personal - "sarcasm doesn't become you. You don't have the wit, etc." There was no need.
Go and kiss your pic of Maggie or something, it'll make you feel better.
