The french surrender again
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-33421521
first to crack and say a deal should be made hahahahaha |
No doubt celebrating Waterloo !
|
Scared stiff of the effect on the €, which is trading artificially high, and has been for years.
|
why would the French want a high euro, they export a lot and are the worlds biggest tourist destination by a country mile
they would benefit from a weaker euro |
But if it collapses?
And if the Greeks leaving triggers a run resulting in higher interest rates for Portugal Italy, Ireland, Spain etc, all who owe money to France? Some others might just decide the € isn't for them either. |
Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Spain and Cyprus would be better off adopting the Drachma.

I know it was meant in jest, but I do tire of the 'French surrender' jibes. It doesn't fairly represent reality.

Me too. It's not PC to want accuracy, nor is it clever to parrot the sayings of one George Dubya Bush, the president that never really was.

The whole Eurozone is looking at Greece as an example of what will happen with the other struggling EU countries with a floundering economy. A domino effect to some degree; Portugal isn't good. Cyprus is bogged down with Greece's debt, Spain has its head in the sand, and Italy is making up stuff as it goes along, whilst Ireland will pally up with the UK for some more help. All of these states are on face disinterested, yet subtlety very eager to see what will come about. |
