Correct. So he shouldn't try and tell the government to spend it on the NHS or schools. "We have a £10 billion, £34 million a day featherbed, that is going to be free money that we can spend on the NHS, on schools, on whatever it is". As he is not in the government he has no say where the money should be spent.
Edit. He also got the £10 million per year wrong.

Of course you contribute more than you receive as one of the larger members. That's how it works.
Right and he had no bearing on the Leave campaign, did he?
Won't work when we invoke article 50 thank goodness!

The economic value to the UK economy of our £9bn contribution was approximately £70-75 bn in 2015 which makes our contribution a very worthwhile investment.
No-one has explained how we fill that hole in our GDP figures in the years ahead.
maybe like trading worldwide before we joined!

I guess the next 6 to 12 months will give us an indication of how that £70B will be affected. Like it wont stop, but I suppose the equation is how much will go south, versus what/if we can start to improve from other global markets.
Bit of a high stakes roll of the dice with a massive economy mind.
But at least we can have our borders back and lob £350m a week at the NHS now.
Well the EU is starting to breakdown - at lest we have options with the NO vote-

The point is he can't control how government spends money. People weren't voting on a manifesto.
Much easier for countries to trade with a singular 14 bil economic entity.
Which is going to go bust in the future!
"Huge borrowing debt" bailed out banks. All funded until then. Bankers continue to float, rain or shine.
I always objected to France milking agricultural payments. But for the wealthy members of a community of nations to help raise peasant and backward economies always seemed to me to be progress. International capital, and the City owed no loyalty to UK manufacturing. Thatcher saw no point in protecting state industries. So north east, midlands, south Wales, Scotland and north west left on scrapheap while City made money in far east. Not EU to blame.its 9 billion I put a official treasury chart up after rebates we pay 9 billion of deficit to out treasury. but look at this google chart -

I just remember the days before the common market, purchase tax on goods wer between 4 & 9 percent we dealt with commonwealth countries and the USA and China food was cheap as chips till that farming agriculture policy!
