Calls for Brown to go nuclear in City battle with EU

Telegraph
""This is an extremely serious crisis," said David Heathcote-Amory, former Europe Minister and now a key Tory MP on the European Scrutiny Committee."Once we lose of control over the City of London we will never get it back, and the consequences could be catastrophic. I think we are in 'Luxembourg territory'. If the City was in Paris you could be pretty sure that French would fight like tigers to save it," he said."The Continental countries have no interest in the health of the City, and some want to turn the tourniquet tighter. I fear the Commission is going to get its way since we have such a weak government," he said."
