We can do the fandango

We don't need the EU they need us.

And what have we taken off the table to counter this? May is, with Brexit, like Labour are with money. Give it all away.

Smh. What a Joke

We can pay for it by charging rent for all those E.U. buildings in Brussels we helped build and pay for just for starters

More like the EU ruled us out of using it, another thing we won't be getting for £39b!

Dont worry the EU will need it for their EU army that’s going to be built ready for a war with Russia and the USA 😂

Cos that will be dead cheap ah well we'll have £350m pweek spare, shame tho, that could've gone to NHS

Boost for jobs then. skynewsfakedebatepole

Excellent - something we are good at and can keep the expertise going in the Uk

What could possibly go wrong? “The system has gone down. The wrong kind of clouds in the sky.”

More from the money tree

Great news...

Ha ha! Yes, in her dreams!

It will take years to do this basically we are fucked

Could start with Lego I guess.

So is the Galileo Project going to refund us for our contributions and/or pay us for the intellectual property we contributed? Or are we getting ripped off yet again by the EU? We know the answers and the media treat us as if we can't understand....

And which launch vehicles will take our satellites into orbit?

Only eu countries can work on their project so we either do it ourselves, which can do or join with a foreign power?

How about demanding our money back ? May probably does not want to upset them

Must be because of Brexit eh

Why we probably paid for it

Bit leavers said that this wouldn’t happen

Blocking Britain from EU space system could cost £1billion EVERY DAY

Hope the stop the relay station for it on Ascension Island and the Falkland island as well

More shite from the Tories StopBrexit

I bet...

Just how are the UK going to pay for this nonsense?

This is crazy..

I’ve just bought AA UK Road Map just in case ....

Now you see our illustrious DICTATOR on another Tax Payer funded spending spree, Many more to follow! This reminds me when I was made redundant... You know the story... Company spends lots of money then quietly but suddenly it's gone BANKRUPT! Anybody see the SIMILARITY?

Galileo is shite anyway

😂

BTW: you need ground stations to monitor these ..... wehavenofriendsleftthankstoher - telstar II is still orbiting, is she planning to recycle?

How we going to pay for it, with washers?

Wonderful news! 👎👎👎Will cost a fortune that we haven’t got. Will our politicians never learn. Spend it on the NHS and Police. Isn’t that why we’re leaving the EU or have I missed some part of our grand plan. By the way I’d like to keep red passports. God help us!

is it going to be like telstar to tie in with the festivalofbritainII and involve a new rebranded company called the GPO.... ? and btw, I doubt may 'ruled out ' using galileo, she was probably just told to get lost by 21 other countries . -

FFS this is getting ridiculous. No wonder Gyimah has had enough, all the MPs with brain cells are coming out to denounce Brexit for what it is - a disaster for the UK. BrexitShambles

Do we get a refund on what the British taxpayers have already paid in ?

What happens to the money we put into it 🔭

Except it’ll be the Chinese or French that’ll actually build it 😞😞😞

what on earth for

At what cost? When it could have been combined brains and funds! She needs to see its not at all about her, these are real ideas and research!

How much is that going to cost? What happens whilst it’s being built?
