Thankfully it all went horribly wrong for the UK very early and we learnt our lesson.

I can't see any lessons learnt after last real estate bubble...

Amazingly enough Gordon brown did which is why when mandelson and Blair wanted us to be part of it he refused to go near the euro

And to be fair he stood against it. he also showed great fortitude in not going on to a spending spree until he got carried away in the late 2000s. I am sure he began his spending spree when he thought he was getting closer to the PM job.

Stay cool lads - Greece will remain in Euro and all will be well.

Indeed they did. You would have thought from that disaster someone would have learnt their lesson.

Though best solution is Northern block+Southern block

Southern Block=France+PIIGS.

France too in bed with the Germans for this to be true. Southern Block would be the PIIGS, plus new member states, who'd have to migrate to Northern block when the financial situation was good enough. I think we'd only make the southern block right now.

Maybe the Germans should leave the Euro
