Default We are not in the Euro Money for a reason We are British
A great Debate on LBC Radio
has set the record Straight.
We trade with Europe and we have done for thousands of years
but the British do not want or need a Money that is run by Germans and French.



Ireland has the €uro
thats there bad luck.

Ireland would have been dead in the ground right now if it was not for the Euro. Ask anyone. It really goes to show how poor your knowledge of some things are despite thinking your a forum authority on politics.

I had a mate who was suicidal.

He was really depressed, so I pushed him in front of a steam train.


He was chuffed to bits.

It gives us more of a sense of identity. The pound is going nowhere.
