UKIP has demanded that Gordon Brown must not donate UK taxpayers' hard-earned cash for somebody else's failed polticial project in Greece.

Party Spokesman Nigel Farage MEP said: "The Greek financial crisis is a crisis created by the EU and the creation of the Euro. In no way should the British taxpayer be hammered to pay for it.

"In January of last year I pointed out that the Greek economy, stuck in the European prison of nations was a train wreck waiting to happen. At the time I pointed out: "Thousands of young people out on the streets were demonstrating, demanding their government does something, demanding that their government cuts rates, demanding that their government devalues. But the Greek Government is stuck inside the euro straitjacket. There is nothing it can do. There is nothing that a future general election can do in Greece to change anything. When people have taken away from them the ability to determine their own futures through the ballot box, then I am afraid that violence becomes the only logical alternative".
