Thread Name: BS: Should UK join the Euro ?
Subject: RE: BS: Should UK join the Euro ?
Definately. In fact there was a report in the Sunday Times about the euro coming in through the back door with all Virgin stores accepting Euro notes from January 1st and selected Marks & Spencer and other stores also doing this. They've already had their tills fixed to show prices in pounds and Euros. The only thing is that until Britain officialy joins the Eurozone then the exchange rate between the pound and the Euro will vary daily and the tills will have to be recalibrated regularly to reflect this. In fact, I'm in favour of a World currency. How many ponds, euros, lira, france, dollars to the Mundo?
