All 55,000 Brussels civil servants are to benefit from the 2.4 per cent salary hike, backdated to July.
This is despite a year marked by a shambolic reaction to the migrant crisis and the stuttering economic performance of the eurozone.

“It’s completely out of step with reality and goes to show that the taxpayer-funded EU gravy train continues to rumble on.” Express.
