I wish for nothing more than for the UK to leave the EU.

why is that? Also why were you guys allowed to keep your currency?

Too much waste, red tape, and crazy laws. Because of the laws on human rights we are unable to deport terrorists because it would infringe their human rights etc. We kept our currency (smartest thing we ever did!) because we never signed the treaty binding us to join the Euro. I think only 4 countries have kept their curruncy. The UK Sweden, and Denmark. Cant remember the fourth.

 

Edit. Only 3 countries are not required to join the Euro. All  other current and future members of the EU are obliged to join the Euro within an agreed timescale.
