Brian, Britain hasn't asked for bailouts, many eurozone countries have, directly or indirectly.
For example, Italy and Spain are having SOME of their sovereign debits bought up by the European Central Bank, meaning a financial burden for the ECB, and have to introduce severe austerity measures.
This is simialr to a bailout, and doesn't solve the actual debt problem, but only prolongs the agony.
Greece, Portugal and Ireland have been bailed out directly.
Britain hasn't been bailed out, so the factor of independent currencies not being bailed out, such as quid sterling and zloty, proves the point.
