>JULIA Gillard has offered extra cash for the International Monetary Fund to help prop up the ailing European economy and prevent another global financial crisis.
>The prime minister made the offer as she arrived in France in the middle of a worsening European financial crisis that is set to dominate the Group of 20 nations meeting this week, The Courier-Mail reported.
>Ms Gillard warned the moves by Greece to hold a referendum on the planned debt bailout has put the European crisis in “fast forward”.
>She said she would push for other countries to join Australia in boosting funding for the IMF as a global buffer.
