		<description><![CDATA[An independent Scotland that retained Sterling would have its monetary policy being set in London but without the Scottish Parliament having any influence on that policy in anyway. The alternative for an independent Scotland might be for them to join the Euro , if accepted which would be even more restrictive. Has anyone in the SNP ever thought just why the UK hasn't and won't join the Euro ?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[....interesting articles to read because of themselves, they reveal and underlying thrust and direction which is totally alien to British perceptions and the very wide gulf is not one that could “bridged” in any kind of negotiations. To want out of the EU is not to be anti European, it is merely to recognise that it is not an organisation that we in the UK will likely ever fit into....]]></description>

His personal aim was to avoid having to deal with the EU in any meaningful way during this Parliament but circumstances in the Eurozone have thrust this upon him.]]></description>

Additionally, when push comes to shove, the political price of overt “German Domination” will be as unacceptable in Germany as anywhere else, reverting to national currencies would be seen as a better solution.]]></description>
