Europe's fiscal Fascism brings British withdrawal ever closer


Excellent post today from Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in today's U.K. Telegraph.

The whole article is worth a read, but here's a key paragraph:

...Club Med governments have built up €7 trillion sovereign debt under the cover of monetary union, which shut down the warning signals for borrowers and creditors alike. We are now near – or beyond – the point of no return. Eurozone states must go along with this cynical entrapment, or risk economic catastrophe. The conspirators have succeeded. The €750bn shock and awe package agreed over the weekend clearly alters the character of the European Project, crossing the line towards an EU debt union and an EU Treasury. How long will it be now before the EU acquires direct tax-raising powers?
