Keith, reading post 2, I suppose one could suggest that if Britain got a bail-out, from other E.U. states, in proportion to that of Ireland, which would mean a much higher figure, it might be one thing.
Being in the euro or not is irrelevant, being in the e.u. is what determines many economic factors.
The club is the e.u., rather than the euro. But there are a number of countries in the e.u.: Britain, Germany, France, and others, who do the bailing out, and as we have seen, Britain does not need to be in the euro in order to take part in doing the bailing out.
