France and Germany yesterday demanded a £13billion-a-year tax raid on Britain to bail out the euro.
But a leading think-tank branded the plans ‘economic suicide’ for the UK.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy said they wanted to slap a financial transactions tax on all 27 countries in the European Union – in order to prop up the 17 nations in the single currency.

How in-your-face does it have to get before the Brits wake up to what's going on here?????????
Here's my a challenge to ALL those who were so outraged by the recent riots and looting in UK.
WHERE IS YOUR OUTRAGE NOW?
Will you be spewing hatred at these criminals? Will you be demanding they be beatn, improsoned, castigated, thrwon out of their homes?
Will you be asking for water hoses and tear gas to be thrown at them?
No - something tells me you'll say nothing and do nothing, and continue swallowing the garbage spewed out by the gutter press about 'our terrible youth'.
THIS, this is what makes me totally outraged. They see the taxpayers as an endless pot to be pillaged at will.
It is total INSANITY and totally CRIMINAL.
The recent riots were a p... in the pot compared to this massive, insane LOOTING of the people of the world.

This is only a proposal at the moment, but if it looks like becoming law then the point has been reached at which the UK should withdraw from the EU. There is no way that the UK which is the financial powerhouse of Europe should be paying for the failure of the EuroZone. It is beyond comprehension how the UK is expected to bail out the failing Euro when we're not a part of it, in fact we declined to join for exactly the kind of problems faced at the moment, yet are still bailing them out of their problem! It's sheer madness, and the insanity has to be brought to an end.
European membership is stifling the UK economy, it's bringing more and more insane legislation to bear on our economy which is stretched to near breaking point as it is.
It's time to withdraw from Europe and concentrate on our own problems, put back in place our border controls, and make Britain Great again!

Newflash - Europe is broke. Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal will always be broke. They are also never really going to institute the types of programs to curb their public spending. The ESA is essentially the German and French space agency. The EEA is fine, but Northern Europe is lucky that the Greeks and Spaniards have little motivation or all the EEA would be is a vehicle to suck jobs out of the north to the south the same way NAFTA sucked jobs out of the US to Mexico.
The prospect of pulling out a passport to travel is a small inconvience as is the issue with respect to national currencies. It is a small price to pay to not pay into the extortion racket that has become the EU.
The Greeks are sitting in their tavernas sipping their ouzo and laughing at the entire affair.
