I think to quote tiny Malta as a shining example, whilst ignoring the vastly larger Italian disastrous experience of the Euro is disingenuous .........but typical of the average Europhile.

I’m not sure what you mean by the fish comment. Is it supposed to be humorous?

Another one who can't understand simple graphs, thinking that the size of individual economies, is relative to their percentage GDP rise or fall.
Both Spain and Italy joined the Eurozone in 1999. Both had a constant rise in % GDP for 8-10 years. If their recession was because of the Euro, then the previous rise wouldn't exist. Is that so hard for you to understand?

A lot of what you post us hard to understand because, when you’ve painted yourself into a corner (as you tend to do with monotonous regularity) you cloak everything in obfuscating bullshit (is that clear enough for you?). 20%/40%/8 million.

Adoption of the Euro’s been disastrous for Italy, a major EU economy, however wonderful for tiny, insignificant Malta. You’re using a very selective and basically misleading example.

Malta just happened to be on the graph you silly dotard. The discussion with Paphitis was about the effect of Euro on Cyprus and Greece and since Malta is a small island who joined the EU at the same time as Cyprus, it could be a good comparison.

You have to prove your claims. The Eurozone concerns 19 out of 28 EU member states. If 5 of them had a recession this doesn't mean it's the fault of the Euro.

Adoption of the Euro has proven disastrous for the Italians. You can’t hide that fact in obfuscating bullshit.

how the hell did the euro prove disasterous when it gives them finacial stability by protectng them from currency fluctuations. do you know anything about anything?

they are free to walk out anytime they wished. greeks and cypriots had the same and chose not to. there is a reason. not that you would understand it.

Yeah right, prove it! I am sorry you are so confused that anything other than a straight line is obfuscating to you.
Just tell me, do you think the Italians are stupid? What's keeping them from abandoning the Euro and reverting to their old Italian Lira if in fact their demise was because of the Euro?

Well, you can do the browbeating routine all day, it doesn’t work on me (and at least I can spell disastrous - ohh, there’s another one!). And - let’s get this right - it’s me that can’t read a simple graph?

You boys crack me up.

You remainers are all much the same. Ohh, that’s a bit unfair. You can spell. Other than that there isn’t really a halfpenny worth of difference between you. Baaaaaaahhhhh.
