Almost half of Germans what to see the Deutsche Mark restored, with just 41 per cent saying they want to keep the euro.

Nearly 77 per cent of the 1,068 Germans quizzed thought they had not profited from the adoption of the euro currency.

Even better would be to scrap the European Union.

“The EU super-state and its...socialist masters in Brussels are here to stay.”

If Germany exits the EU (the euro is mostly propped up by the German economy) and goes back to the Deutsche Mark, how many divisions is Brussels going to send across the Rhine?

the EU superstate is the child of Germany and France’s elite/globalist/socialists. Its based in “neutral” territory of Brussels.

Switching to the D-mark would weaken the German export market but it would make the rest of Europe using the weaker Euro more competitive.

And that is what the sheeple in the other countries think...

But the silly German peasants, as if they even think they'll get a vote on bringing the DM back. :^)
