EU flat

 The EU budget added up to €130bn (£105bn) in 2011.

Germany is the biggest contributor, France second and the UK third largest contributors to the EU budget.

Many are questioning the size of the EU budget – at a time when individual EU states are cutting back on spending, Brussels is asking for more from the member states.

To make things worse, the EU budget for last financial year has not been signed off by auditors, the eighteenth year this has happened.

  1. Very interesting stats. Greece is indeed a poison to the well being of the EU. A close second is Spain. I worry got Germany, how long will they be able to prop up the EU before it starts to affect their own economy.

  2. The EU was a bad idea in the first place. We are as hostage to them as we are to Arab oil.
