The post you are reporting:
Well if one looks casually at the numbers on display at bureaus de change when walking by, you notice that there are periods when the euro goes down for a few weeks, then periods when it goes up in value.
It's a trend that effects most currencies, including the quid sterling, so nothing particular there. But, Barry, I suppose you might agree with me here, that both the pound and the euro are in a bad shape, mainly - or at least partly - due to the immense State debits that Britain and most western European countries have. So one of the actual solutions to resolving economic problems here and across the Ocean on the fair cliffs of Calais really lies in solving the State-debt factor, as this would also benefit the budget of individual countries. In fact a part of State budgets here and in Europe go on repaying debts and their interest, so, following the vicious circle, the Treasury makes new - and bigger - debts, to pay off old ones. See Greece!
