I am generally quite dissapointed by anti-Euro campaigners in Britain. While there are three very good reasons to not join the Euro, anti-Euro campaigners usually avoid all of them and go for the awful 'patriotism' line. The whole "the £ is old and therefor it's good!". Britain changed currency only 30 years ago, so it's no big deal really.
And anyway, joining the Euro or not isn't really a choice. All countries in the EU must join the Euro....eventually. Blair is taking full advantage of that last word, but the question is not if but rather when.
As for the war in Iraq being to destabilise the EU... hmmm.. I've never heard that one before. I'm not convinced. Invading a country just to get at Europe seems a bit much.
