If Britian adopts EURO

[likevin]

What will happen to GBP if Britian considers adopting the EURO as its currency? What are its implications to GBP traders such as me? How likely will they adopt Euro how soon do you think it will happen?

I think there will be referendum in the UK about this.

If they adopt euro then we will lose GBP ps (as DEM FRF others before)

I hope they will stay out of eurozone as long as possible

Question for Britons: What do you think about UK joining eurozone?? Will it be good or bad for Britain?

[novice]

IMHO there is now almost no chance that Britian will join the Euro any time soon (i.e. within the decade).

So no need to worry.

We are to get a referendum on the new constitution which we will vote against next year.
We have been promised a referendum on the Euro as well but this looks at least 3-5 years away the country is overwhelmingly against the Euro.

Britain will not join the Euro ever in my opinion but worst case scenario ( my point of view) is that we would join in 10 - 12 years at the earliest.

Long live the pound!!!!

I like EUR/GBP GBP/USD I fall into sadness only thinking they could vanish!
