It depends what that 20 billion is for.
10 billion a year for what? Free trade?
Give them 10 billion a year for the first two years and the next it goes up to 15 billion then 20 billion. When does it stop?
Offer 20 billion and they screw the thumb nails for more because Wendy have just about admitted we owe. When we don't.

One does not have a cancellation charge for ending a previous arrangement that was never going to be forever anyway. The very suggestion is astounding. Consider, I pay for a TV licence every year; if I get rid of the TV and not watch it any more and so no longer pay to be a member of the TV watching group I don't expect to pay a massive bill to the licensing authority.
What we voted for was to leave the EU not negotiate how much they can screw us for to exercise our right to no longer be a member of the trade block. Plus we didn't vote for a pretend leave only, leaving on paper, and this so called "transition period" is clearly an attempt to find a chance to stay in, in all but name.
It seems that May is failing to listen to her better advisers/cabinet members; and may possibly leave a situation that will have to be revisited when someone, who seems to have more integrity with the principle of leaving, is in charge.

//No, they are not a total joke, she is.//
So you'd be happy with Boris Johnson or Jacob Rees-Mogg in charge instead would you? Or perhaps the pathologically sad and tragic seeming Amber Rudd, or mayhap the Drs friend Jeremy Hunt? Let's not forget everyone's favourite Michael Gove and all their chums are just as bad, so who is it pray tell who isn't a flaming joke in the cabinet? I'm dying to know ( along with the rest of the country).

The problem is the people “managing” this are, for some inexplicable reason, scared witless of simply leaving without a so-called deal. There is no need for such fear. Businesses want certainty. The greatest degree of certainty can be secured quickly by announcing that we are leaving in March 2019 and that we will trade with what remains of the EU on WTO terms. There is constant reference to this being a divorce. Well there is no such thing as a gradual divorce. The decree nisi was granted last March when A50 was signed; the decree absolute is scheduled for March 2019.
There is no need for a “transitional” period. Businesses will have had 33 months to prepare for our leaving by 2019. That is transition enough. If they have not made their arrangements by then another two years will not encourage them to get off the Arises with the necessary urgency.
If £20bn is to see an absolute end to our membership on a defined date in the not too distant I suppose it is money well spent as this constant fannying around is getting tiresome. I’m not convinced that it will because I do not trust the EU to stick to any arrangements made in Good Faith as I do not believe that term exists in their vocabulary. Personally I’m hoping that this offer will not be acceptable to our “friends” across the Channel and our government will show some backbone and tell them to go forth and multiply. But I’m not holding my breath.
