Sarko has made EU budget restraint a central plank of his re-election campaign. *If* the UK and France both stand up and say no, then we might see the Commission reigning its plans in a bit, but I don't know about an actual freeze.

Sadly I don't think there is anyone on either front bench in the Commons with the 'nads to flat refuse to increase our contributions.
