Life expectancy, 85 - 52

Only in our warped little kingdom would we call this equilibrium.
If Scots' circumstances are so different, it seems harsh to impose the fiscal policies of a much wealthier state on them.Comment

The pound is shrinking as is the country with threat of union breakup, through no fault other than our own.
This is not an argument for the euro this is self destruction of a country that thinks colonially rule is fit for the modern world. The euro is wonderful because it offer change from that thinking, which is most refreshing.
I'd say the opposite. Most of the UK wants to avoid being made a colony of a federal Europe.Comment

Agreed. The same can be said for Northern England, not just Scotland."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

When we've been unable to maintain colonies the strategy seems to be import the world's population onto our tiny little island.
No one is forcing the UK to be part of the EU yet it is accepted and is beneficial. You'd be starving now if it were not for those eastern europeans picking your crops."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

In the Euro area, policy is being run for the rich countries to the detriment of the poorer ones.

Sounds like sas has gambled his life savings, selling the euro hoping for a crash.
Now he's sweating because he's realised the euro is still strong after all problems in Greece.
I would kiss that 2k goodbye dude, your dream of paying off your mortgage before you get to 70 is now back in lottery ticket land.Comment
