Emperor & Empress Maroczy operate the biggest" STING" in History

I have watched the news and read different newspapers ever since Mr.Papandreou the Greek Prime Minister made his announcement of giving his people a referendum on whether to take this wonderful bail out package given by the aforementioned illustrious couple, remember that this deal has not been written yet so agreement could involve many years of austarity for Greece.Obviously the world was aghast at such a dangerous thought, Markets lost a great deal of money,Governments told dire stories of what would happen if Greece were to default,how things have changed within a few day's we now have the Marcozy Duo demanding that Mr.Papandreou attend them at Cannes, poor guy is told off in the most extreme way and then makes an idiot of himself by saying that he most definatly wants Europe to work.We then have the dynamic duo(did I think that there were 17 Member States in Europe)come on the TV saying that Greece cannot vote on whether they accept the bailout but that they would have to vote on whether to stay in Europe, so where is the worry of Europe and Markets collapsing when a demand such as this has taken place.Just heard on the box Mr.Papandreou has offered his resignation "Job Done"the referendum will quitely disappear and all the other countries will now follow the lead of doing as they are told by the Marcozy Duo. I mean after all we had the Italian Government rushing a Cabinet meeting forward yesterday who have more debt than Greece, so the ploy appears to have been very effective does it not.

Yet again the Dynamic Duo have gotten their own way, we have a banker as Prime MInister for Greece I sincerely wish him well and hope that his finacial expertiese helps Greece out of their fiscal crisis,one blur on the appointment because this is what it is he was not elected by the populace,we await with baited breath on who they have chosen for Italy.

Italy hit over the 7% mark this morning, does this mean that it will have to default or will they be pushed by the duo.

The excrement has already hit the fan in Italy. The receivers,pallbearers and undertakers of the EU, ECB and IMF are already moving in.Spain could well be next.France not looking so healthy either.And to think that for years Labour and the Lib Dims wanted us to join the euro !

I entirely agree with you, Greece appears to be under control or so they think?just wait until the people open their envolopes taxing them an additional 5% on Utility!Oh my.Italy-well the north being financed by the !!! it will not take long for the poo to hit the fan!

"After Italy is brought under control.."That I would like to see.

Keith Iddon ● 5022d

When you have warehouses full of your old currency just in case that surely tells the story!!!It would seem that Greece are to have a new Prime Minister, one that has been working in the states at some upper university, Greece dealt with now Italy,the old man won the vote on the new budget purely because 321 MPs abstained(they should have had the *alls to give a vote)After Italy is brought under control by the Dynamic Duo, what's the bet that they start on Finland.

France's finance are not in a healthy state. A German Professor of Economics from the Technical University of Berlin said last night live on France 24 TV News as I watched in astonishment.  Whatever the Germans are they are not fools, they know how to count and make cars the rest of Europe wants to borrow their money buy.The West Germans had to pay huge price to reunify their own country and rebuild East Germany, the Socialist basket case after 1990.Most ordinary Germans are now fed up of paying the huge price of unifying Europe.It is a lot cause.Die Neue Deutschmarken are already being planned. You will soon be able to buy them at the Post Office, Marks and Spencers or at Morrisons in Brentford.Der euro ist kaput.

Well a phone call to the Greek Parliament from European Top Knob today accomplished a coalition this evening by threatening to take them out of Europe if they did not come to an agreement this evening. A good thing? I don't think so! precedents have been set that will continue throughout Europe does this mean that there is no longer a democratic forum but a dictatorship!very very worrying.David Cameron was told quite vehemently last week by Nicolas Sarkozy that we in the UK were not in Europe, irrespective will this mean that we have to toe the line or have no trade with them. Nonsense a new Free Trade Treaty was signed up in '94 we can complete come away from Europe and still trade that suspicious"50%"

Angela Merkel and Nicholas Sarkozy who seem to run roughshod over the whole of Europe, press ganging any nation who dares to suggest a referendum "you are either with us or you are completely out of Europe" no arguments do as you are told.Did you see how angry he became at his press conference when he was asked when his country were going to give out their Treasury report, I thought he would have apoplexy.How dare someone have the temerity to question whether France's Finances are in a healthy state.

Merkel + Sarkozy  = Marcozy(sic)?Signed: Sherlock Holmes

Keith Iddon ● 5026d

Sorry but I have to ask - what is the Marcozy Duo?

Bernadette Paul ● 5026d

Well! I could say I told you so, this is better than a film script, I take my hat off to Mr.Papandreou he along with the Marcozy dynamic duo have succeeded in getting Greece as a country to agree to the bailout of 26th October without even a threat of a strike.It would appear that even though Mr.Papandreou has been cast adrift and no longer has a 3 majority he is more than willing to work with the opposition in his Parliament to make this bailout succeed, I wonder what the vote of confidence will bring to him tomorrow, either way there will not be a referendum because there are just some things that the people should not vote on(not my words)I just hope that the IMF do not expect the UK to give Billions instead of Millions in the future, 53 countries that the IMF help has been dallied about several times today is this an indirect way to get the UK to assist the likes of Greece,Italy and Portugal etc. Let's start concentrating on our own economy and strengthen that before we bail out Europe!!

Dawn Hardy ● 5027d

AH!but that was part of the scam it looked good to the country however it would not have happened it was only suggested so that the duo good show their combined strength and all the other countries will now stand upright and listen and adhere to what is ditcated to them.Greece must be the healthiest country apart from Italy in Europe a Dentist only earned 300 Euros last year on his Tax Return and Doctors poor poor souls only earned 9000 Euros each on their Tax Returns! Perhaps if the tax was payed as it is in our country they would not be in so much debt.Incidentally I am in total agreement with you for a change, why? should any country who spends foolishly expect handouts to get them out of debt!

Dawn Hardy ● 5027d

I think the names you are grasping for are Nicholas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel. I think when you are considering giving a country vast amounts of dosh you are entitled to tell them to get their house in order. Farting around with referendums which cost God knows what at a time like this is a bloody joke. No-one seems sure what the referendum will ask - do the Greeks want to stay in the Euro Zone or do they want to accept the bail out with the conditions, never mind the rest of Europe is being dragged along with this farce. The Greeks cannot expect everyone else to keep getting them out of the s**t, unless they are prepared to pay their taxes which they are very reluctant to do, and accept that things are going to be very unpleasant for sometime. The Greek P.M. is trying it on and has been rumbled, Berlusconi is another numpty who needs to get his act together, remember he who pays the piper calls the tune.
