Like previous speakers, I welcome this debate. In the play "Tom Crean - Antarctic Explorer", the character of Tom describes how he heard something which he never heard before when a man said to him, "I made a mistake". Such admissions were not a common occurrence when Tom Crean was with the Royal Navy or during his wonderful exploits in Antarctica. We must begin this debate from the proposition that the euro and its design are fundamentally flawed and that we are imposing a fiscal solution in respect of a monetary mistake. I would like those in Frankfurt and Brussels to admit they made a mistake-----
