"are the European sharing in the tax collected by all the countries?"

Zeev, where have you been? It used to be the UK and Germany supporting everyone else. When Germany was unified, the UK held that coveted post alone. Not sure on the status right now but I suspect it is similar.

Of course, the UK (and perhaps some others) abides by the rules while some of the others don't. As someone who has been involved in property dealings in Greece and in negotiations in Spain I know this to be true. The UK follows to the letter the rules that allow equality in all member states when it comes to issues such as employment, import/export, land ownership, farming/fishing quotas etc. Other countries, notably France, Spain and Greece place several years of red tape in the way which makes business on a level playing field without bribery almost impossible for non-natives.
