    It's (eventually) mandatory to join the Euro if you want to join/stay in the EU. Not for the UK though as an exception was created in the Lisbon treaty. Another example how EU always descriminates the UK...

    Can you fuqwits at least agree to disagree?
    Old Greg - In search of acceptance since Mar 2007. Hoping each leap will be his last.

        There is nothing to agree or disagree... UK, Denmark and Sweden, they all negotiated an exception to joining the Euro!

          Well I disagree! The BBC tells me that Sweden has NOT negotiated an opt-out:

          "Some European Union countries have negotiated "opt-outs" in areas of EU policy they do not want to join.

          In the case of the UK and Denmark, these opt-outs include membership of the euro currency.

          Sweden, a country which has no opt-out, has also been able to resist adopting the euro. In 2003, a referendum was held in which voters rejected joining the currency."

                It is now. Denmark has an opt-out*, since they joined before Maastricht. Everyone who joins now must adopt the Euro when they meet the qualifying criteria.

                *As has the UK. If we don't end up leaving, I fully expect all our opt-out clauses to be torn up in our faces.

                  Sweden are just kicking the can down the road. They are supposed to be committed to joining the Eurozone, but everyone's looking elsewhere at the moment. And we all know what the EU think about referendums...

                    Don't worry, that will only happen in a couple of years when UK beg to join EU again...
