when what's basically happening is that the tax payers of northern europe particularly germany are going to have to pay up to stop greece should default president only or don't particularly like obsession the near fanaticism of the european elite for the political project of united states of europe and a common currency has. resulted in a terrible terrible human cost if there is a greek default the people who would suffer would be the holders of greek sovereign debt who are basically buying institutions and the like is sort of the people who are suffering no. principle in private the two million private sector employees in greece who are actually bearing the brunt of these draconian austerity cuts. britain the well not take part in a new greek bailout u.k. prime ministers promise to taxpayers he said he saw no reason why britain should be involved in the burdens facing eurozone countries john gordon told the referendum
