Should Britain join the Euro?

[Strike]

Following the arguement in the previous thread, I will start a poll. So what do you think.

Alan Partridge: I was just joking about the last post bit, its just I will hardly post anymore in politics threads.

 

[alan partridge]

why?

 

[Kryten]

yeah, why?

 

[Soton Seagull]

Yes, but not yet.

I think it is inevitable, the decision has already been taken in principle and we will just have to get used it. Annoyingly, we will still be allowed the old witch's head on the currency

 

[Albion Rob]

I think we probably should. Nothing to be afraid of and would make life a hell of a lot easier.

its destroying the french economy from what the french shop owners said to me when i was on holiday. i think qwe should stick with ours for the time being

 

[Man of Harveys]

Yes, definitely. And the sooner the better - for consumers, for tourists but most importantly of all for employers and exporters.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Of course we should.

Isn't that the crap way that the french economy is run rather than the euro?(may need someone who knows what they're talking about to clarify that...)

that is certainly possible. + what i did understand was them saying 1cent etc was just pointless worthless money. it would equal around 0.66p in our money or something like that

 

[looney]

No

 

[perth seagull]

Hard to say. Both sides have their pros and cons. Probably best to wait a few more years and see the long-term affects on the countries currently involved.

 

[Icy Gull]

Isn't it a bit nimbyish to not want the Euro? We are part of Europe and in a recent survey 85% of people interviewed, if they had the finances or job opportunity would like to be able to emigrate, mainly to Spain and France.

So we'd like to emigrate there but we don't want their currency

 

[Ding Dong !]

Absolutely not... this countries already losing its identity. I don't want to be European... leave that to the Germans, French, etc etc.

 

[Sorrel]

I'm in favour of waiting a few years, as it's easy to get in but much harder to get out. I don't think there's a need to do it right now, but it may well be in our best interests in the future.

 

[looney]

shows how representative this place is vis the population at large, looking at the poll results so far.

Load of guardian reading middle class trash.

 

[Withdean and I]

why change something that works so well?
keep the pound!

It's too late. Like it or lump it, you ARE European.

 

[ripper]

As long as companies in the UK don't take the piss and mark everything up during the change over I really can't see it being a problem for me.

I'm not. I live on an Island not a continent.
