David Cameron: London is under constant attack from Europe - more grist for the mill (karma: 1)  en>fr fr>en

The City of London is "under constant attack" from European Union regulations, David Cameron has said. British Prime Minister David Cameron arrives for the opening cermony of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting

Speaking on his way to Perth, Australia, for a Commonwealth summit, the Prime Minister also warned against the 17 eurozone nations colluding to undermine the European Union's free market rules.

He said: "London is the centre of financial services in Europe. It's under constant attack through Brussels directives. It's an area of concern, it's a key national interest that we need to defend."

Mr Cameron said that he will fight to prevent closer integration of the Eurozone countries leading to anti-competitive regulations.

"As the 27 we need to make sure that the single market is adequately looked after."

"There are a lot of things the eurozone is doing together. Having more meetings alone, establishing machinery - it raises the question of could there be caucasing?"

"There is common agreement that this was an important issue and that we should be working together to make sure the arrangements provide a safeguard."

"It is very important that the institutions of the 27 are properly looked after and that the Comission does its job as the guardian of the 27."

Tory eurosceptics have raised fears that those in the currency bloc will "gang up" against the others - described as caucusing.

His comments came after George Osborne, the chancellor, said Britain will not help pay for the euro bail-out.

The Chancellor made the promise in the Commons as he faced growing pressure from his own party to repatriate powers from Europe.

Mr Osborne said he would not allow the International Monetary Fund, which is partly bankrolled by British taxpayers, to provide money for the new euro bail–out fund.

The announcement was a fillip to Conservative backbenchers who have demanded that the Government acts to claw back powers from Brussels.

The Daily Telegraph has learnt that Tory MPs will meet next month to begin drawing up a detailed plan calling for the return of employment and social laws following the back–bench rebellion over a European referendum.

Mr Osborne told MPs: "Britain will not be putting money into the bail–out fund either directly or through the IMF."

He ruled out IMF involvement amid indications that the international organisation may be asked to help bankroll the €1trillion (£880million) fund to lend money to beleaguered countries in the single currency.

"The IMF exists to support countries, it does not exist to support currencies," Mr Osborne said. "The IMF contributing money to the eurozone bail–out fund, no; Britain contributing money to the eurozone bail–out fund, no. That is Britain's clear position."

The city of London (and the United Khalifate in general) is now not much more than a revolving door and laundering operation to and from tax heavens, time to put these criminals to rest and kick them out of the EU !

If we are not paying anything towards the Euro bailout then we don't have any say. That's fair enough. He who pays the piper calls the tune.
