I've just returned from Gran Canaria and was very impressed with the standard of the roads and lack of trafffic on them, particularly the motorway standard autovias.
I'm led to believe this is a result of EU funding.
I've visited Portugese territory and noticed a similar, vast improvement in their infrastructure after acceptance into the EU.
So why do we have to tolerate such poor highway standards when the UK is a major contributor to EU funds?
We now have Greece being propped up by EU funding and it looks like Portugal may be the first of other countries to follow.
I may have to find a candidate in favour of leaving the EU when I enter my X tomorrow.
