In a letter for its readers to cut out, sign and send to their member of parliament, Bild writes:

"Dear member of parliament,

"This week you are voting in the Bundestag on the German contribution to the billions-loan for Greece. The country lived beyond its means for years. The Greek government deceived the responsible EU institutions with lots of trickery.

"The government says no taxpayers' money will flow to Greece and Germany is just guaranteeing loans, which will be paid back promptly. For the German taxpayer, there is therefore no appreciable risk of losing out.

"If that is the case: Are you ready to personally guarantee this guarantee to the Greeks? To the tune of your annual expense allowance?

Yours sincerely ..."

Meantime the French Parliament, increasingly out of tune with its voters, has reportedly approved the sacrifice of their taxpayers' hard earned funds to be also poured down the Grecian drain!
