IN your columns a Euro MP Mark Hendrick, asserts his belief in a single currency. I, and I'm sure many others, would rather support the views of fellow Labour Llew Smith, Labour MP for Blaenan, Gwent.
I quote: "Among its many effects, a single currency will oblige Britain to become a member of the European Central Bank, the executive of which will be appointed for eight years. No matter what damage they inflict on us, no-one will be able to remove them."
People will still have the right to vote, but that vote will be a charade, the parties and governments for whom they vote will no longer have powers to rectify the wrongs inflicted on them.
