Just seen this shared on FB (an older post). Is any of it correct? Or is is slightly correct but twisted for a purpose?

Thank you. (I am happy to look deeper if people could point me in the right direction but I am not sure where to start)

I can't click on FB links, is there any other way to access it?

No, it's not true, it's been debunked a bazzilion times, as I'm sure you're aware TeamUnicorn. ilovetheeu.co.uk/trade/no-the-eu-does-not-fund-companies-to-move-jobs-out-of-the-uk/?fbclid=IwAR0a4JIE52SqLS0fWKOuEV6ssQot1QF3z90BJUUHgr543HSQTjXx85A-dWg

Not sure if the screen shots will work.

No I am not aware which is why I asked.

But thank you for the link.

You can screenshot but google is beyond you? Ok. Well I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Oh God this lie is doing the rounds again. I bet people will believe it. I have (stupid) friends who believe and repost this even after seeing the evidence (that they don't believe) proving it's not true. I really despair.

Wish I hadn't asked. I have never seen it before, hence me asking.

But that link answered what I wanted to know, so all good in the end.

(N.B it is really easy to screenshot on my phone, hold power button, click screenshot. )

I would have a FB cull but it is always good to keep up with what the Leavers are thinking/sharing. I may have to hide people though, I am slowly losing a lot of respect for people and I don't want it to spill out into real life.

If people are posting this please post the debunking link in reply. I did this ages ago to a friend who then posted an angry response to me and blocked me! Leavers love their lies in my experience. I watch a programme on Netflix about flat earthers, they reminded me a lot of Leave voters, there is no amount of evidence that can sway them, Brexit has become a cult.

I have shared the link on my FB, but I am aware it will probably fall on deaf ears.

I apologise. I thought you were being a bit goady so I allowed myself to be a bit snippy. I accept you weren’t. Soz @TeamUnicorn – your name helped to deceive me!

TeamUnicorn · 08/09/2019 12:50

That's ok. It is hard to read tone and intent sometimes.

My name was a late night change at some point, I really do need a new one.

As usual there is truth on both sides. There are grey areas. That is quite clear from reading your "debunking" document. The EU pretends it has not given a grant but countries give illegal state aid themselves and the EU does nothing. And where have these govts got their spare money from? Taxpayers in the UK, arguably. You can see why it rankles. Especially the Ford case, which stinks.
