🇪🇺💸🇬🇧After footing the NATO bill, sending support to Europe’s security frontlines, and tossing millions into the French pot to stop rubber dinghies from becoming a new ferry line, the UK has been rewarded with… tariffs. Yes, the EU just sent us an invoice for helping defend them. Because nothing screams “alliance” like charging your mates for showing up to the same barbecue.
🧾 The Great Continental Gratitude Shortage
So, let’s get this straight. Britain funds NATO missions, props up the defence umbrella keeping Europe safe from Russian roulette, and pays France millions to not wave at smugglers from the shore. The EU’s response? “Cheers, mate—now pay extra on your exports.”
Apparently, “solidarity” is now a premium service. And the small print? “Subject to tariff inflation and selective memory.”
Maybe Brussels is jealous that Britain can still throw a punch without asking a committee’s permission. Or perhaps this is just another episode in the long-running sitcom: “EU vs UK: The Petty Years.” Spoiler alert—there’s no happy ending, just paperwork.
We defend the continent, bankroll our neighbours, and get punished like the noisy kid in class who actually did his homework. Meanwhile, French ports collect cheques, NATO collects praise, and British exporters collect bills. Vive la fair play, right? 🇫🇷💁♂️
