        Well, maybe the EU won’t give them a choice if they want to join. Every new joiners adapts to the euro, why should the UK be special?

          Because the pound is strong and there are other countries with their own currency.

            Every EU member but Denmark is obliged to adopt the Euro and the days of granting exceptions on accession are over.

            On the contrary, the EU will make sure that the UK isn’t going to pull a Sweden and deliberately fail the Euro criteria just to avoid adopting it on a technicality.

            What might happen is introducing national backsides for Euro notes so you can have your King’s mug on yours. We’re not monsters after all.
