Britain Forced to Pay Brussels 2.3 Billion Pounds Over Import Fraud

Britain forced to pay Brussels 2.3 billion pounds over import fraud. Court ruled that Britain had actually failed to collect billions as a result of fraud on imports from China. European Commission did complain that importers into Britain had really escaped a number of customs duties. This is all to do with false invoices and artificially low value documents for things like Chinese textiles and also footwear.
