3 Britain s contribution to the EU gets bigger every year. That means bigger tax bills for families across the country and too much of the money is wasted. Brussels also makes life difficult for British businesses with draconian regulations. We deserve a better deal. This EU Fiscal Factbook provides a clear overview of the big picture: How much cash do we hand over every year? Where does it go? How bad is the situation in the Eurozone? Full references can be found at the back of the guide. The TPA will play a crucial role in the EU debate over the coming years so I hope you consider joining our growing grassroots army. Voters want clear facts as we move towards an EU Referendum, and this booklet will answer their questions.
