EU Demanding Even MORE Hard-Earned Cash From Taxpayers.

Outrage as EU politicians demand extra £8BILLION from taxpayers for Brussels budget
EURO-MPs provoked outrage tonight by demanding an extra £8billion from taxpayers for the bloated European Union budget. Express.
Reminder - UKIP, at least, are still on the taxpayers' side this week in Strasbourg!
UK Independency Party MEP Jonathan Arnott, who sits on the European Parliament Budget Committee, said: "The Labour Party in particular have shown their true colours by voting down every attempt to save money from the European Union's budget.
"They have shown they just don't care how much taxpayers' cash is wasted by the failed European Union project.
"In total almost a billion pounds would have been saved by the Ukip proposals.
"It wasn't just our amendments that were voted down either.
"Other parties' bids to scrap the House of History - a museum to the European Union - and the EU's own television service went the same way.
"I can't say that I'm surprised; this is just how things are done out here."If Cameron thinks he can renegotiate anything meaningful on the EU with these people, he is naive and out of his depth in European politics."
Matthew Elliott, Chief Executive of the pressure group Business for Britain, said: "The EU should axe red tape, not promises to cut it's bloated budget.
"Just this week Eurocrats highlighted last year's budget victory as an example that the EU was willing to reform, but now they're backtracking on even that.
"If MEPs were in touch with what voters and businesses want, they'd be reducing the EU's enormous spending even further."
