British taxpayers to fork out €45m to rescue Cyprus
British taxpayers will have to pay €45m (£38.2m) as part of a deal struck by European leaders to rescue Cyprus, as a new finance minister was sworn in amid warnings that there would be “difficult days ahead” for the country.
The Treasury has already flown more than £10m in cash to Cyprus to ensure that British troops and their families stationed in the country have had access to funds amid the financial chaos.
Britain’s new banking watchdog, the Prudential Regulation Authority, brokered a deal this week to rescue 15,000 savers’ deposits held by ailing Cypriot lender Laiki by transferring them to Britain.

Motorists face MOT failures and repair bills as EU imposes 20 tough safety checks | World | News | Daily Express
CARS will be scrapped and drivers hit with expensive repair bills under EU rules starting today, experts warn.
Tougher tests will see previously roadworthy vehicles fail their MoTs or be in need of costly repairs.
From today an additional 15 boxes on the MoT checklist will need to be ticked before cars are deemed legal to be on the road.
Ukip’s transport spokesman and MEP Mike Nattrass, said: “These rules will drive perfectly serviceable cars off the road, and hundreds of thousands of motorists to the cashpoint.”
The changes, which include stringent checks on warning lights, handbrakes and wiring, were introduced in January last year. But it is only today that they become mandatory, with vehicles failing the MoT if they do not come up to scratch.
