DAVID Cameron may still provide struggling eurozone nations with further handouts through the IMF, it was revealed today.
The Prime Minister, who has already approved a £10billion bailout fund in July has provoked further outrage among his MPs by not ruling out additional support.
Mr Cameron said: "We have set out our conditions for contributing more to the IMF. We support countries and not currencies or currency zones. The IMF shouldn't be doing what the eurozone itself should be doing."
The PM is thought to be buckling under the pressure of some coalition members, including the Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg who is an steadfast pro-European.
Mr Cameron acknowledged that his decision last month to wield the British veto to block a new treaty of all 27 EU member states has created a "pressure point" within the coalition government.

Looks like the Tory Civil war could be back on!
