TOP Eurocrat Jose Manuel Barroso provoked fury last night by insisting that all European Union nations must ultimately adopt the euro.
The President of the European Commission predicted membership of the EU and the euro currency system would eventually become “the same thing.”
It was seen as an indication that the 17 eurozone countries are set to dominate the EU with the muscle to make Britain accept their rule.
“In principle all member states of the European Union should be members of the euro. It’s an obligation of the treaties,” Mr Barroso said in Brussels.
Acknowledging Britain and Denmark had negotiated the right to opt out of the single currency, he added: “All the other member states have the legal obligation to join the euro area. So in the future the euro area and the EU will be basically the same thing.”
He also seemed to ridicule Britain remaining outside the euro zone. Questioned by a BBC journalist, he replied: “Ah, the British, what can I say?
Martin Callanan, leader of the Tory Euro-MPs in the European Parliament, said: “Mr Barroso has let slip his true vision of Europe and the euro: ‘You’ve all got to join, one size fits all, like it or lump it. Because we say so.’
“He acknowledges Britain’s legal right to an opt-out but tries to portray that as abnormal or perverse. Some rats may be happy aboard Mr Barroso’s sinking ship, but he must forgive us for not rushing to join them.”

Sir Winston Churchill
"Never Give In"
"This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."
"If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it the third time — a tremendous whack."
"Dictators ride to and fro upon tigers which they dare not dismount. And the tigers are getting hungry."
"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last."
