I dont think so. The £ is a trademark of Britain and if we turn to Euro, then we will be like everyone else! The only thing it will help with, financially is with trading with other countries, as money would not need to be converted.

Not necessarily, since it would only help when trading within Europe, trading with country's outside of europe (which 85% of all britains trading is) would still require the conversion, except the money charged for this serves wouldnt be just getting pumped back in to the UK's economy, but instead off in to europe to subsidize French farmers or something like that.

Defainately not, when we changed to sterling prices shot up everywhere becasue people didn't learn the exchange rate, we would all lose lots of money. Plus £ looks better than €.

We should keep the british pound, everyone has got used to it now and there's no point in changing it to the euro.
