Guest The Ropey HOFF Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Hi everyone these are difficult times and who knows what will happen in the future, there is no previous for what could happen, you can think the worst and multiply it. This isn't doom mongering or scare mongering it is true life here in europe and it is unprecedented. My view is this, its everyone for themselves, if theres one thing that successive governments have shown us, its look after yourself and cobblers to anyone else, its a sad state of affairs, but we are in desperate times and the money figures they are talking about is mind boggling. Me, i would like europe and the euro to go t-ts up because if we end up with the euro our standard of living will crash. Fingers crossed that the experts are wrong and that we come through this, but i have a bad feeling about it all. At least we have a get out of the uk card (visa) if the worst comes to the worst, who knows we might be forced to leave, at least my wife wouldn't have to decide and if thats what it takes to live in sunny Australia then so be it. jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Lass Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 It is unbelievable, the Labour party will be shafting the British people and the economy long after they are gone. Good riddance. I quite agree. Remember how Blair and then Brown promised that there would be a referendum on the Euro? Remember how that never happened? I noticed its presence on their latest manifesto as yet another election "pledge" that he and his "new" Labour lot did not intend to keep. Alas, it will indeed be a good riddance to bad rubbish when Brown is shoved out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Lass Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 That's buggeringly awful news, Shark. Here's to the hope that some extremely smart lawyers will be able to tidy up this mess and untie Britain from the EU's strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not right!well that sums those bast7ds up,look at the Irish they voted no to the Lisbon treaty ,they came back and blackmailed the irish into a seconded ref they told them they would go further into rescission, so they got the yes vote ,and now look at Ireland its finished.we did not even have a say because Gordon /Cameron both agreed to it ,scum bags.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernow43 Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 Darling’s last act: leaving a £15bn bill for British taxpayers David Cameron is facing an immediate clash with Europe after Alistair Darling prepared last night to sign up to a massive new fund to back the euro that could cost British taxpayers £15 billion. In what could be his last act as Chancellor, Mr Darling went along with plans to double to €110 billion the bailout fund designed to prevent a repeat of the Greek financial crisis. A Conservative source said there was no guarantee that a Tory government would back it, and it would need to see the details.

Guest Markh Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Thank you Mr Brown/Darling for putting the country in an even bigger mess and screwing the British tax payer of another £13billion so you can help another currency and just to make you look a real european. These two idiots should be charged with treason against the state for there actions whilst in government and hung from the tower of London.
