BRITISH TAX PAYERS PAY £650M TO KEEP GREECE AFLOAT

The theme of this election is how many cuts the next government no matter which colour it is would have to make. Yet they never look to cut foreign aid or debacles like this. The British tax payer will have to pay £650 million to keep Greece afloat. Yet again we as a country suffer for others greed. If it isn't bad enough that we have to house the worlds population we now have to send money abroad.

Mats Persson, research director of Open Europe - an independent think-tank that promotes reform of the EU - said: 'This move will take Europe into uncharted territory and no doubt cause outrage amongst British taxpayers.

'Britain didn't want to be in the eurozone for this very reason as it is now paying for the economic mistakes of another government. This should be a eurozone problem, but I guess it is seen in Britain's interests economically for Greece not to go bankrupt.'
