Iains: I make no comment either way whether this should affect the negotiations or timings of Brexit. I merely point out that I do not think whether it was an official body or not is not important to any such considerations.

Nigel: I am not very interested in what the total spending each side was. I am interested that all such spending is lawful. You, Iains and others have argued about the importance of sticking to the law on another thread: for consistency you need to apply the same discipline here.
