I'm not suggesting that we don't trade with Europe but merely that each European country reverts to a currency that it can easily support.
If a European country goes bankrupt you lose out whatever currency they are using.As it is the Euro is bankrupting countries whose economies are not strong enough to support it.
All countries, businesses and individuals need to live within their means. If they had we would not be in the mess we are in.
Dropping the Euro and the EU Parliament infrastructure gives poorer economies greater room to manouevre instead of being tied to EU dictats and allows stronger economies to continue without having to continously bail out economies that are failing.
Each nation's future, after all, lies in its own hands not the EU's.
If we had been allowed a referendum, I believe many people would vote to leave particularly when the EU Parliament has a salaries, pensions and expenses scandal that is bleeding European countries dry.

A better solution is to keep the euro but not enforce it as a only currency in poor countries. eg. I use euros even tho I live in the UK. Killing the currency is going way over the top and seems some are on a agenda to get rid of it, exchange rates are a horrid thing as for one it allows people to make money out of exchange rate confusion, eg. something may cost 100usd in america and then 100gbp here, a sudden large % markup.
Everytime there is something going wrong with europe some news agencies are on it like a rash, along with various people on here and on other places, like they cant wait for it. Shame they not so keen about problems within the uk.
Not only do I sell services to europe but I also buy them, especially from germany and holland. Online services availability within europe would be severely hampered without the euro, but I guess people who live only within the UK shell fail to see this and just listen to anti EU propoganda too much.
