Cameron vetoes EU Treaty change

[SWP's back]

This is about the City of London's contribution.

The City of London contributes approx 4% of tax revenue to the treasury or about £20bn.

I bet in contribued a hell of a lot more during the boom times. Double at least would be my guess.

Which is why were are having to cut public spending.

You can't have it both ways.

Why not come up with the figures then? Instead of making generalisations.

I'd love to see your source please.

Because my source says £53.4 Billion and 11.2% and it was £67b in 2007.

Many stop acting billy big balls with GDM then.

Thanks

Straight away I can see the figures are for all finicancial services in the UK not the City of London.

Must try harder Attila. C-.

You can't seperate FS and the City in this argument.

Edit: In two posts, you have called me "odd" and "atilla". Can you not debate without argumentum ad hominem on this topic?

You mean pensions, loans, insurance, credit cards & mortgages?

Yes I can.

No you can't. The treaty would have affected our FS industry, not just the City. It was about more than just the Tobin Tax.

But you (presumably) acknowledge that the tax take from the City has diminished considerably and therefore public spending must be cut.

Cameron is protecting the financial institutions in London,not the British public interest,tories just making sure they can keep the ignorant british blob in their place.He,s put tory party interest in front of national interest.

Financial services accounted for a £35bn trade surplus last year — one of the few sectors that generated a surplus, as well almost 2 million jobs and it contributed £54bn in taxes. But yeah lets hand it over to the EU

This is about the City of London's contribution.

It's not just the City Of London it's the entire industry

It's over because of their greed. I accept their should be cuts but do you accept some of the banksters should be doing time?<br /><br />-- Mon Dec 12, 2011 6:44 pm --<br /><br />
