FARAGE RUFFLES A FEW MORE FEATHERS.

The future is always difficult to predict, but UKIP leader, Nigel Farage, could well be onto a winner, suggesting that violence has to be a possibility, as the disparity between the 'haves and have nots' in the Eurozone becomes increasingly divergent.

If we don't learn from history, then where do we seek our guidance? Nations will only take so much subjugation before factions arise in retaliation. If and when these groups join in unison, we will have a problem. It is no good thinking that they deserved it, through lack of economic discipline, we are now far beyond that point. After all, Brussels must have known that these nations to the south could never aspire to the type of discipline that the Germans embraced; Germany having learned the hard way, following the hyper-inflationary era triggered during the period of the Weimar Republic. France can also be added to the group of 'basket cases'. These financial pressures will probably awaken nationalistic activity in forthcoming generations, who will only see that they have been left an enormous debt by their forebears.

The author is not excluding the UK in this turmoil, post Margaret Thatcher, we are as much to blame as many of these financially weak nations. The British National Debt doesn't stand up to serious scrutiny, which means that trouble can be just around our corner, at home.

SO MR. FARAGE, YOU COULD WELL BE RIGHT!
