That's not the point though is it.

We all know a currency union is possible, and that, to lesser degrees than the one proposed, they exist.

If Jerseys central bank failed, would we be responsible for hailing it out?

Bottom line is we don't want a currency union with Scotland. Doesn't matter if it may or may not work. We don't, and won't have it.
