It doesn't. According to the CBI, every UK household is £3000 better off (that's £1,225 for those of us who aren't households) each year thanks to Britain's membership of the EU.
The UK pays money into the EU Budget just like every other EU country, but we also get money back through EU funding programmes and the British economy gets a massive boost from the EU single market.
So, in a nutshell, Euro sceptics are after taking money from us and UKIP are talking made-up nonsense.
