It's all the UK's fault for not signing up to the Euro and pledging to bail out other countries who don't have a clue (sarcasm alert).

Actually, despite Sarkhozy (the man's a fool) I have a great deal of sympathy for our French and German friends. They have had to pump so much money into the EU and the Euro only to get shafted by the PIIGS.
What I find amazing is we're talking so much money - I really have to wonder where it all goes. I wonder if anyone has done an EU predicition of what would happen if the EU states simply gave no more money into the central pot.
The best thing I heard is that aid for Greece should be given to holidaymakers to spend in Greece. Then we'd get something for our money, the Greek peoples would get something and if they still didn't pay taxes, well we could go over and help ourselves to some more marbles.
