Yes, Ted Heath has a lot to answer for, well he did, bless him.

He resided in my home town for decades and although Mrs Thatch didn't like him, she attended his funeral a few years back.

who is your daddy bitches

I heard that Sarkozy has a big dick, so with your tight ass, it will be a perfect fit

You wish to be more like the French? The French are part of the Euro system.

Man the barricades . . . start the jingoism. Xenophobia rules. If it's not the hordes of foreigners trying to get onto the UK it's the nasty Euros (Oh, you guys are European as well, by the way) trying to destroy the vcery fabric of pure Englishness!!!!!!

Twat.

Indeed, but why let facts get in the way of a good anti-anything rant that the SUN readers get their kicks out of

It's completely relevant as has already been pointed out. It's against sovereign interests to support it to such a degree.

It's not a matter of keeping a currency afloat, MtD, it is a matter of supporting a fellow EU member. (As ridiculous as that is, in terms of it being Greece)

More like the French meaning they pick and choose what to accept from the EU, the EURO being a separate issue from the EU,

Got it now troll

As Jet says, stick to shafting the Burmese

The Brits will accept that which is brought into law, they will argue their case before that, the French accept the law but ignore it if it is detrimental to French interests

In fact the Brits are the Zealots when it comes to enforcing EU law.

That's now what about in 5 years when Greece looks like Cambodia and they are living in mud huts.

They've rested on their laurels a bit from the times of Plato; Socrates; Archimedes, etc.

Nowadays they're mostly famous for hairy women that take it up the gary; kebabs; fat weddings; and goat's cheese.. Fail.

I expect that once David Cameron gets to look in the cookie jar, presuming he is the man, there will be great shock on how broke the UK really is. The balance sheets are always fudged a bit for elections just as happened in Greece. Only natural to have a little spin. i hope there are not too many IOUs.

I think djpat just booked his flight

Aww. And the IMF is kicking in how much to save Greece, of which the US and the ROW are paying how much?
Yep, that libbie entitlement system works so well.

It all looks like a giant Ponzi scam to me, but where everyone says 'I know but'

When are Iceland going to pay back to The Former Empire ? LOL

Alastair Darling gave assurances that the UK's total liability if there is a total default by Greece is £8bn, doesn't sound so bad, but then there is Spain, in trouble and already has unemployment at over 20% , then Portugal, Eire not having an easy time, is going to defer some payments, UK has got enough pain of its own to go through yet.

I can see all these new Eastern European members of the EU thinking, lets have a spending spree, we have deep pockets too! our fellow members can bail us out in a few years time !

They spoke, looked at us and started to laugh. The taxi driver then said 2,000 dracmas. Since that moment in time I have been waiting for a moment like this. The Greek economy is collapsing, policemen aren't getting paid and taxi drivers have no customers. As a firm believer in karma, I say ha ha ha ha ha ha

How about that: the UK got EU membership with the sole purpose of sabotaging the whole EU project and minding her own business, but now she is FORCED by Lisbon treaty to mind the business of Greek fellas and sabotage her own currency, the pound.

Now this is karma in action

mmm, goat's cheese

Well I say , you wanna be an EU member , you've gotta adopt the Euro .
If not just go out the EU imho .....Together we stay strong in the future ,
if we don't not one of us can maintain ouur expensive lifestyles anymore .

They are effectively monetizing the debt, following the USA printing their way out of the shit for a few months.

This is going to end badly, you know that don't you?
