A quote from Nigel Farage MEP in The Independent, 20 December 2005

In 2004 the Conservative MEPs negotiated a membership deal where almost half of their information budget is given to the federalists. This money has been used to campaign for the introduction of the euro and the EU constitution; [...] [David Cameron] should leave the EPP before the end of the year, to halt a further [£] 700,000 being transferred to causes his party claims it opposes.
