BSE have put out a press release pushing the line that charities oppose leaving the EU. At least they’re honest about the reason: “New research shows leaving Europe could cost UK charities over £200 million a year“. There is even a handy breakdown showing how much the EU hands out to each charity each year:

Oxfam GB: £38,799,473

International Rescue Committee UK: £22,990,156

The British Council Royal Charter: £19,986,116

The Save The Children Fund: £19,767,256<

International Medical Corps UK: £14,098,995

Mercy Corps Scotland: £11,045,230

World Vision UK: £5,311,721

Plan International (UK): £4,876,119

Actionaid: £4,714,942

British Museum: £4,357,968

In total British charities receive £217,597,098-a-year from the European Union, though in reality this is UK taxpayer cash that has been sent the cogs of Brussels bureaucracy only to be returned to the third sector. See Dan Hannan’s video on EU charity sockpuppets:
