The trouble is that Germany (and its people) refuse to compromise the fact that Greece/Spain/Portugal/Ireland etc will not tolerate any more spending cuts or reforms. The time to do it (if ever) is when the economy has returned to a sort of "normal"

This does not help the fact they want to save the Euro, if they are prepaired for Europe to face a economic collapse and thus affect the German economy, then they need to scrap all but the least harsh austery measures. How can Greeks accept austerity, when the French, the Dutch and even the German State of North Rhine-Westphalia will not accept them!

This has gone beyond politics and beyond if the EU is a good or bad thing!

Like it or not a United States of Europe will need to emerge and Britain will have to deal with it carfully, we don't have to be a part of it (the other 26 nations can!), but we might lose Northern Ireland in the process
