Euro zone and Britain.

Cameron says that he will fight and not let any more powers be ceded to Brussels, whilst plenty of people in Britain may agree with him and in some cases I agree with him on certain things. Britain fixing its own interest rates or dealing with our own laws that go back over 900 years and still apply today. We all want to see the Euro survive, and if Europe wants to implement a new treaty then this has to be agreed by all 27 European Countries not just the 17 Euro zone members. No body knows what will happen this weekends meeting, but one thing is sure that Germany being the strongest member and in many cases the driving force within the European Union, France may be batting above its weight and may also want to save the Euro, but the most important thing for Sarkozy is the influence that he wants to rule Europe. He wants to be top dog and will try anything to get that position. That is one of the reasons why the European Union is flawed and always will be because deep down the Tricolour is more important to France and the French people than the European Flag., and deep down the Union Flag is more important to the British people than the blue flag with the 27 gold stars of Europe, and like wise I believe that this applies to the other members of the Union no matter what their leaders may think Country before Union and this will always apply even when the 17/27countries are working together. Country first Union second. Perhaps fifty year from now when this generation is replaced by the youth or still unborn people of Europe, who will be brain washed into putting the Union before country as history is distorted with certain things being left out. Take the Spanish who are trying to forget the Franco era. or the Germans for the Nazi era, although with all respect to the Germans they have not tried in many cases to hide the guilt of the Nazi era, and is on open display at Bergen Belsen and other such camps. The Germans are I believe the country that does really believe in the Union before country more than any other of the 26  countries. But as  to paraphrase Edmund Burke. Evil only triumphs when good men do nothing. Lets hope that the good men of Brussels are doing it for the correct reason, first and foremost  the people of Europe, and not fore there self glorification.
