That could've been spent on long suffering public services.

We could just get on with it and leave with no deal in a few days I suppose. Indeed, at Government Departments across the land, people working in key areas that you would probably regard as being utterly vital are being hauled off to emergency plan the ruinous impact of no deal. Your taxes are being used to pervert the day job of the civil service from furthering the health and wellbeing of the nation, to trying to desperately mitigate the catastrophic impact.

The thing is it isn't stupid money. If we're going to do this it will cost billions. To not prepare would be stupid. It's incredibly complicated. To rush it is madness.
Perhaps this figure of 4 BILLION QUID just to prepare should've gone on the side of the bus. I don't think it was a vote winner though.
All spent and we haven't even left yet!

May has also awarded a multi million pound contract to a ferry company that's actually not got any ferries, The government has also just paid the euro tunnel company 33 million in an out of court settlement because of a tendering mess.
All this money has been spent and what is even worse we won't even leave without a deal what a waste.

I'll be glad when it's all put to bed, then we can move on to the next referendum, hopefully one on Capital Punishment.
The fifty two percent for Brexit would be eclipsed by a yes vote, would they dare do it, of course not, yet this Tory spat continues to fracture the whole nation.

Nope we won't do that unless the EU refuses to let us extend article 50 that is. which they won't
