If the EU is all it is cracked up to be , then why does the UK stay away from joining the Eurozone? All the other major players like Germany,France,Italy,Spain,etc. have given up their precious currencies – why not the UK?
Something does not add up here ! What do our European friends see that we in the UK don’t see,and vice versa? After all, the EU is primarily about economic union, and a common currency appears to make common sense.
No one – Brexiteer or remainer – ever mentions
the EUROZONE.
It seems both sides appear to agree that staying away is, after all, a good idea !
Any input gratefully received – might even help me make up my mind in the second referendum who knows !

GDP per capita is usually the clearest indicator of development.
