Well you don’t need to be an economist, still less a genius to know that the Eurozone is in one hell of a mess. The causes are many, boiling mainly down to the state of denial of the Eurozone’s leadership. Their entrapment in the closed view of their own particular and narrow interests. Whether of their own states, or their own jobs or just their own electoral advantage.

Now that’s no way to run a football club, let alone a country, let alone a would be union.

Nevertheless, when the history of this tragic period is finally written, I expect it will go down as the most horrendous period of attempted social engineering, where the concept of “human being” was obliterated by the direct descendents of the Enlightenment and the Rights of Man, in favour of nebulous arithmetical (badly done) sums and the narrow self serving advantage for a select few.
