More details
The U.K. as the leading player in the financial markets in theE.U. would suffer more than any other member state.Merkel and Sarkozy know this,they say they want a level playing field but will Romania ,Latvia or Lithuania be contributing as much as the U.K.? No they will be recipients of U.K. investors and pensioners paying this levy.If rejecting this proposal is the catalyst for withdrawal from the EU then so be it.Switzerland are laughing their heads off.
