I HAVE been following with interest the correspondence on the single currency and, as far as I can see, no-one seems to know much about it. All we get is party rhetoric but no actual facts.

Perhaps Coun Pearson and his supporters and Mr McVee could give us some clear facts so that the rest of us 'mindless party slaves' can arrive at an informed opinion.
