Before the credit crunch the view of the average UK voter was that it was "inevitable" that Britain would join the Euro. How things change.A commentary by Michael Stuermer in the German daily Die Welt says it is "in the German interest to keep Britain in the EU at almost any cost". Mr Stuermer praises the "free trade instincts" of the British and says European defence without the UK "would be a knife without a blade".
Hubert Wetzel in Germany's Sueddeutsche Zeitung is somewhat cooler on Britain's continued membership. "Of course Britain's departure would be a disaster for the EU. However, with all due respect, Europe has bigger problems," Mr Wetzel says.
The Europe correspondent of the French daily Liberation, Jean Quatremer, is categorical. "In a few years' time, Britain will have left the EU," he says in a blog post.
I can't see the point of EU membership now. It costs us a fortune and I don't get the free trade argument - the US trades with Europe without any problems and they are not in the "single market".
The Eurozone will increasingly go down the road of socialist superstate (until it eventually breaks up)... Britain would be best served being outside the whole undemocratic mess. Bring on the referendum.
