Carry On Up the Khyber

Carry On Up the Khyber. Farage says the Ineptocrats are in denial Carry On... Up the Khyber Well, you're back Mr Van Rompuy, another two-and-a-half years, no doubt a reward for your great success. Indeed, listening to you, I thought perhaps I'd got it all wrong. You talked about how positive the last Council meeting had been, that we've reached the turning point, that everything's going swimmingly, and I was beginning to believe it. And then I realised that you did not mention the D word: Default. No, that can't be talked about. We pretend there hasn't been a default when we know in fact in Greece last week there was a very major credit event. Indeed, listening to all of you this morning reminds me of the great British comedy classic Carry On Up the Khyber , where the colonial English go on having dinner, ignoring the fact that impending disaster is all around them. You are determined but delusional in this attempt to keep the euro propped up. And whilst you are enjoying your dinner, incoming shells are landing all around you: youth unemployment in Greece went through 50% last week. That's fine, carry on, serve the main course. And you will have seen yesterday that 110 German bondholders of Greek bonds are now gonna take legal action against the banks and against the Greek Government. But don't worry, chaps; carry on; everything is gonna be fine. But perhaps the biggest bombshell is the German Finance Minister saying just yesterday nobody could exclude a third bail-out. Pass the port. Do enjoy the party. I mean it's a farcical situation, and why is it happening? That's what people in Europe wanna know. Why is this happening? Is this being done to help Greece? No. It is going to crucify Greece. It is being done to prop up a failing project because you know that once Greece goes, others will go as well. And some of the language. Mr Barroso, when leaders stand up and say that political moves are irreversible, history has one lesson: you are always, always, gonna be proved to be wrong. euroSEPTIK.cz :: reformy.cz :: svobodni.cz
