Pay Rises All Round on EU Gravy Train
Euro-MPs were handed an extraordinary £3,000 pay rise yesterday after EU judges ruled in favour of an inflation-busting increase for tens of thousands of Brussels officials.
In a controversial ruling, the European Court of Justice rejected a bid by national governments to cancel a 3.7 per cent wage rise for MEPs and EU bureaucrats.
More than 46,000 officials will now receive the pay rise in full, backdated to July 2009.
They will also be paid interest on the overdue sum.
