The post you are reporting:
The Cyprus tax is with immediate effect, yes!
It is a confiscation, not a tax, Ross.
It enters into effect Tuesday, but sufficient bank accounts in Cyprus have already been blocked in order to ensure the sum of money the Cypriot government wants cannot be withdrawn, namely 6 billion euro.
All money transfers have been blocked.
Cypriots are under shock, including the many Brits living there, and even British soldiers serving at Dhekelia and Akrotiri who have bank accounts in Cyprus.
This EU imposed confiscation order could easily be applied in Spain, where there are many hundreds of thousands of British people living there.
As for a massive return of Brits to Britain, of-course they are entitled to come back, but it is unlikely the Government will allow millions of Bulgarians and Romanians to come flocking over too.
Currently, 25,000 Eastern Europeans are still coming to Britain every month, there is a surge in immigration from Eastern Europe, and tens of thousands of translators are employed here to accommodate them.
Perhaps you should read the news articles, Ross, in the daily papers, or even take a visit around town.
