I AM absolutely fed up of the propaganda regarding the euro.
You had a recent article about Britons always complaining. I entirely disagree. We seem to put up with things which would enrage other nations, and so stoically to boot!
I have yet to meet someone from any political creed who is in favour of it. In fact, I have a "No to the euro" sign in the back window of my car. While in a typical working class area, some boys saw my sign and shouted -- "Hooray, down with the euro!"
There is too much "euro management". The Europeans have never done anything for us, and older people still remember Adolf Hitler!
This is only the thin end of the wedge as we will not be able to set out own interest rates, inflation will rise, as will unemployment. Nationwide petitions have been issued, and I've had quite a part in them.
I'm infuriated by those who would stoically accept the euro foisted upon us and even smile at the prospect while I know they are against it. It's a case of the old chestnut -- "they are too powerful for us to take on". Well, history proves "Goliaths" can be taken on -- whether they be Hitler or greedy developers -- and beaten!
