Re: Brexit Budget Failure
I can't remember the exact percentage increases, but Germany would suffer the highest. The one I found suggestive of trickery, though, showed that France would have to pay an additional 1-2% compared to the Netherlands' 2-4%!
It makes me wonder exactly who is actually calling the shots in Brussels.
