"I thank the Council for that very comprehensive response. I am still amazed that the situation is allowed to continue. Liechtenstein must be a drain on Austria in the way it flouts the system so close by. I am amazed that the larger EU states allow these anomalies to continue outside the EU but within the wider area. These states are extremely dependent on our benevolence. Andorra uses the euro, the Channel Islands use the pound sterling, but they pick and choose which laws they want to follow. They exploit loopholes that the EU allows, and we continue to allow that and enable a few rich people to exploit the system, making a mockery of our EU regulations. Despite everything the President-in-Office has said, I still think it is amazing that we allow these anomalies to continue. I would have thought there is a need for even more action than he has just spoken about."@en1
