The British public were not going to vote in favour of the euro anyway.
As such this is a very clever thing to do; the tide has turned for Blair - by accurately placing the blame on the French, he has stirred something deep inside the British character. Now he will prevail.

"The strategy is to target bomb the French," said one MP Sounds good to me. We'll supply the MOABs, if you want them.

Back a few years during the Clinton era I thought Blair was much like Cliton.........I was mistaken, he has character.

Boy! This may work oout really well: Not only do we get rid of the UN, but also save Britain from an awful fate in the EU, with the euro.

A true friend in Tony Blair!
Although I disagree with him on many issues, this guy has really shown that he is one class act. Way to go Mr. Blair!!!

"France confirms its openness to seize all opportunities."Mm hmm. Yes, we've noticed that.
To: MadIvan
Sounds good. I for one am tired of the french getting away with their bleating.

Two questions:
1) When do you sleep?
2) Can there be a man, woman or child in the entire UK who would REALLY prefer the Euro to the Pound Sterling?
To: MadIvan
We should pull out of the UN and join a New and Improved Commonwealth with Britain and our other True Allies. With trillions of dollars, and the world's greatest military forces combined, I expect France would surrender before the ink was dry.
I would love to see this done just to see the look on Chiracs face. Oh what fun we could have......

British risk being assimilated and losing their culture. Close the Chunnel right away.

You'll have American support on this particular European War. Let's take the French veto out of the UN, or better yet, discard the UN in its entirety.
To: MadIvan
Bump.
It is possible to create a European Union that does not include Chirac's France or Schroeder's Germany. Perhaps UK, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria, the Baltic countries and others could form a union of their own sans la France und ohne Deutschland.

Poor Blair.
Neither the yanks nor the French care what the UN thinks.
Maybe Blair should join this select group, do what he wants and then deal with the mob.
The mob doesn't seem to be bothering either Bush or Chirac
To: MadIvan
I wondered about that. Has British irritation with the French ever completely gone away? Guess it's due for a revival.
Forget the EU. Let's have the US, Britain and Canada as the nucleus of a new free trade zone.
