We seem to get half-truths from both sides on the financial transaction tax rather than the full picture. As an elected parliamentarian I am keen to get the information rather than a piece of information that suits one particular side of the argument. What Ms McVeigh said appears to be a partial truth because it does not equate with the contribution we make to the EU and the reduction in the budget.
