cost of EU to hit British taxpayers |
UKIP West Midlands
MEP Mike Nattrass says the British economy will be badly hit
by soaring contributions to the EU.
With the Office of National Statistics (ONS) announcing that Britain has come
out of recession Mr Nattrass fears our fragile economy could be severely held
back by increased contributions we will pay to the EU.
The Government
has admitted that British contributions to the EU are to
increase in 2010 by almost £1 billion.
This news has been greeted with dismay from Mr Nattrass who believes Britain
should withdraw from the European Union.
“ At a time when people are having their homes repossessed and when businesses
are going to the wall we are paying out more to the EU – it’s simply
ridiculous,” said Mr Nattrass.

“ The
EU is costing us all dearly. Most of our laws are
made in Brussels when they should be made in Westminster.
The cost of EU membership is not just monetary it also
threatens our sovereignty.
“ We should make our own decisions and manage our own
affairs in Westminster. UKIP is the only party committed
to fighting for the interests of Britain and we are
the only party fighting for Britain to pull out of
the European Union.
“
Britain is weighed down by costly EU directives and
EU bureaucracy. We should say No to the EU and say
no to no say,” he added.
