Payments to the EU

Lord Tebbit, speaking against the background of defence cuts, said at a recent meeting of the Bruges Group “There are not two areas of public expenditure, the health service and overseas aid which are sacrosanct and ring fenced, there are three. The European Union expenditure is the third.” Norman Tebbit further explained that if we were not burdened with the anti-democratic EU we would be able to afford to properly defend our nation.
