Re: Euro Rebate
Blair has betrayed his own country in the interests of his ego. Our contribution will rise by an amazing 63%, from £3.5 billion a year to £6 billion a year. Meanwhile, the hugely wasteful CAP which takes up 40% of the EU budget and benefits the French more than anybody else goes unreformed. So French farmers will grow fat while we have to cut back on school and hospital building progammes. All this so that Blair could protect his legacy as a great European leader. As far as I'm concerned, he should be clapped in irons and thrown in the Tower of London.
However, perhaps I'm missing something. Could any Labour councillors or party members justify their leader's actions?
