Mandelsnake and the Euro.

Mandelsnake says Britain will "obviously" join the Euro.
The newly promoted First Secretary of State, speaking in Berlin, hailed the euro as a saviour that had brought stability to the European Union during financial turmoil.
"It is perfectly clear that the euro has been a great success in anchoring its eurozone members during this financial crisis," he said.
...
Asked if the British Government would consider joining the euro, Lord Mandelson replied: "Does it remain an important objective for Britain to find itself in the same currency as that single market in which it interacts? Obviously yes."
Righty-ho. Just the small matter of persuading a nation of sixty million largely anti-Euro and anti-EU people that it really is a good idea. Or will it simply be forced on them as with virtually everything else relating to the country's EU membership?

I think we know the answer to that one.
