    BIG portion of the Greek economy is tourism, they joined the euro, all the prices went up, tourism went down, businesses closed. Simple.

    Whenever I've been to Greece the people have been moaning saying they should never have joined the euro. I agree.

    If the 'austerity measures' are going to be paid for by the people then of course they should have a say.

    We're having to pay for the fuck up the bankers/government has made - where's our vote on that? Forget the general election bollocks.

    But that's a bit hypocrite because prior to the referendum,Greeks were massively in favor of joining the European Union. Even shadier, they got caught hand in the jar for false books reports about their finance but Most european leaders decided to turn a blind eye on it. BEcause of that falsification, according to the article 25 of the Lisboa treaty (if I am correct), they would have (Europa) the right to kick off Greece off the union, to ask them to straighten their finance, to give new clean sheets about it and to then oin back once it's all done but they chose not to to give a "strong face" to the European image. It kind of backfired miserably.
