Why Britain Is Skinned By Europe Payoffs
The writer argues Britain has paid about £132,000,000 to Europe and received £37,090,000 from creditors, claiming a net loss near £200,000,000. Snowden and Owen Young are cited as shaping the argument, warning Europe’s pawn status to the United States. The piece asserts Germany bears a large levy, Europe faces ruin, and Allied debts flow to America while Europe remains unsettled and ashamed of subjugation.
