| Should the UK adopt the Euro?
A cross-section survey of 1000 people in the U.K. made up of :
Afghans, Albanians, Bengalis, Bosnians, Caribbeans, Chinese, Croatians, Cypriots, Greeks, Hispanics, Indians, Iranians, Iraqis, Irish, Malays, Nigerians, Pakistanis, Poles, Somalis, Turks and an assortment of Geordies, Brummies, Glaswegians and Liverpudlians were asked if they thought Britain should change its currency to the Euro.
99.9% said no, they were happy with the Giro. |

| The EU has some decidedly shakey new members some of which are in the Euro zone. If things keep going the way they are we may see the Euro slide more than a little. Better to wait till the exchange rate improves first before we consider joining. |

| A few of the countries in the Euro Zone have spoken out as saying joining up to the Euro was the worst thing - they would not mind going back to their own currency. |

| Given a vote (and the EU will not allow it) most countries would ditch the Euro at the drop of a hat, a complete failure and counter productive currency |

| RE msg 8, turtle >>> Given a vote (and the EU will not allow it) most countries would ditch the Euro at the drop of a hat, a complete failure and counter productive currency <<<
===> But..., Turtle! Only five years ago it was 1 GBP to 1,5 Euro. Now it's only about 1:1!!! Only Brits understand that the GBP is doing fine - some 650 million people in the EU ("bloody Continentals") are to stupid to understand... |

| I think we as a country are in to much debt to be allowed to switch to the euro at this moment in time,

The Mad Crusader has seen the light
He now sees it clear about Europes plight
Britain pound will alsways be strong
God- 5 million imigrants cant be wrong
I know that you continentals do aspire
To be able to sing with Mr browns choir
On our currency we have our Queen
Nothing on a euro like that you have seen
Britain is the last bastion of hope
Cant you see that MC, you dope
Against all invaders we have stood firm
While on the continent under yokes of tyranny we saw you squirm
On foriegn Fields Britains blood was shed
Unlike others the sheep to the slaughter we were not led
So come on Mad Crusader to us a cheer you must raise
Because to you continentals two fingers we wave |
