EU BUDGET CUT IS VICTORY FOR DAVE.

Good Old Dave !

 

For the first time in the history of the European Union, or so the media tells us, the cabal of bureaucrats who aim to rule over Europe have agreed to  a reduction in their budget over the next few years. Perversely, I' ve also heard that the contribution made by the UK will still rise - there's a conundrum.

 

Cameroon and his pals have already claimed a huge victory in their struggles with the Union but have also been remarkably silent about the UK's contribution. Apparently, it will rise by up to £500m, but I suppose they consider that too little to worry about in these days of trillion pound debts.

 

Given the profligacy of the EU, a budget reduction is hardly something to get excited about, in fact one would hope that our political masters would have automatically looked for major reductions in times of financial hardship all over the continent. Of course, the fanatical socialists who do run the EU don't actually think in such terms and look only for ways of stealing more of our money in order to squander it on themeselves and their mad schemes. Getting them to accept a cut in their spending is no mean achievement.

 

For once, I have to say that Dave has probably achieved something positive, though I also wonder how it came about. One suspects that the iron fist and monetary clout of Germany was probably more significant in the final analysis than was anything said or done by Dave but I mustn't be churlish. It was Dave who made the running and came home with the catch.

 

Well done, son !
