They have a deal with Turkey to let all the 'refugees' in so they can join ISIS and eventually be forced out of the EU and default on the debt, or they delay it long enough that the rest of the EU have joined ISIS and they all write off the interest as it's forbidden under sharia law.

Isn't majority of the money owed to Germany and possibly France. Hence, German reluctance to let Greece go - but not sure how long can they keep propping them up. They will have to write off significant amount of debt, but even then not sure if Greece can stay out of trouble.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostSo do Italy, Spain, and France. It would be interesting to see their "who's owed what" bill.

Talk as much as you want but noone asked them to take that much debt. They have near 0 rate too.Originally posted by SunnyInHades View PostThey'll never pay it off - there's more chance of Sadiq Khan holding a Jewish gay pride festival in Tower Hamlets, with Ken Livingston as guest speaker.
I like the last scheduled payment of €74,600,000 on August 20, 2045 !
More bailouts then politically motivated write off is probably on the cards.
"... Jeremy Corbyn is among 19 Labour MPs who have called on David Cameron to take steps with other European leaders to cancel Greece’s debt"
