Blair signed the millennium document along with the heads of European parties stating that he would back the Euro, but that he did not want the City of Londons cosy monopoly on Eurobonds to be taxed.

Again, Blair , like the Tories before him wants to be in the club and then out again when its suits him.

Better the Scots push hard for independence and become true members working to better the Union than play 'keep the South East of England happy' game that Blair so loves to indulge in.
