However why should our Government have to compensate with TAX payers money. That means we are giving money to Cyprus and the EU. The EU should not be robbing money from the accounts of British service men and there families in the first place. The EU are now setting a precedent by robbing directly from peoples bank accounts. The EU has NO RIGHT to be taking money from the bank accounts of British service men in Cyprus who are serving there as part of the UN and
are NOT part of the EURO. British tax payers should not be funding this bail out indirectly in the way that this will happen. Any money refunded to servicemen or British ex pats by this Government will not be paid back to the British Government by the EU you can bet.

The UK will compensate any British troops in Cyprus hit by plans to introduce a bank levy as part of a £9bn EU bailout, the chancellor has said.
British government workers would also be protected, George Osborne said.

I bet you now there will be bloodshed over this in Cyprus
What shocks me the most is that there are people on this forum who think we should be part of the Euro
