The government will "resist" these taxes from the EU.

So, lots of fist-shaking whilst being able to do nothing about Eurocrats going ahead with it anyway.

And our contribution will be larger than other countries in the EU because that's what we signed up to..

I'm waiting on Nick Clegg to come and tell us it's a fantastic idea, wonderful for Europe and Britain, well, 40% of our exports (and 50% of our imports but let's ignore that bit) are from Europe, though of course this would change without the European tariffs.

Bit like the Common Fisheries Policy, Common Agricultural Policy, free movement of people, etc.

Clegg and his crew of Eurosycophants I'm sure will have some excuse why this is great.

Just as an idea of how sycophantic they are there's a group in the European Parliament - the Union of European Federalists. Its President is a Liberal Democrat MEP.

He loves this.

Dan Hannan for Prime Minister ...

How is it that this country's most recognisable Euro-MPs are also the arch-sceptics?

Nice one Chris, my friend Andrew Duff, so obviously anti-British and Euro-sycophantic popped in with a question there I see - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ii0Yc...ailpage#t=275s

Ah Nigel Farage, I was almost sold on him, going by that clip. Until I remembered him making such a plank of himself on Have I Got News For You.

**Chris** · 29-09-2011, 10:18

That just means he's a genuine politician. It's their job to make a plank of themselves on HIGNFY.

Russ · 29-09-2011, 10:21

Well yeah but there's good plank and bad plank when it comes to that show and it was the negative for him. He was doing that "I'll ask the questions that the public really want answering!!" thing however he was in a charisma-vacuum at the time and no-one had any interest in (or idea of) what he was talking about.

You know, UKIP style.
