    That won't happen, the Southern European countries would not want that in the first place.

    The South should chuck out the North. It would be practical.

    At the time EUR did not exist (in proper form a it is now), so Major was really unlucky, his only fault that he did not teach hedge scum not to crap where they live.

    Sorry about that.

    I was thinking of the Tories back to basics campaign at the time where they demonised single parents and gay people but were busy creating single parent families, were in the closet gay or did things like this linky

    All the parties were gunning to join the ERM then as they thought it would bring benefits to UK trade and bring interest rates down.

    Brown when he got into office obviously got some good advice from some civil servants to the downsides of joining the Euro hence the mythical test conditions.

    It's a by-product of being a Prime Minister, and very competent at that.

    So Major makes £850k per year, peanuts compared to Bliar who made tens of millions on exactly what? Major's consulting time is certainly worth £1k per hour, so he probably does 850 hours per year - part time job to keep him relevant and avoid boredom, well done - I am sure he also pays full UK taxes on the amounts he makes.

    Major is trustworthy, clever man, it's a pity populist scum Bliar beaten him in 97.

    Remind me again, who was it that was campaigning fiercely for Turkey to join the EU a number of years ago, referring to his own Turkish ancestry?

    And clearly, the way to get net immigration down is not to limit immigration but the ensure that more British people go to work abroad. The JobCentre could work with Eures to make that happen. Right now there are more than 1.8 million vacancies not counting the 61,741 ones in the UK.
