    Just saw Angela Merkel on tv. She has the appearance of someone who hasn't slept for a week. Why doesn't Tsipras also look like that?

    Merkle's got the better part of a 100 billion German squids to worry about going down the Swanny as well as her place in the history books.

    Tspiris is a currently considered a Greek legend by the young Greeks and now probably has some very powerful new best friends and a forever career on Russia Today if he wants it.

    Can I ask, when Osborne keeps saying he will do what he needs to do to protect the UK, what do you think he means ?
    Proudly voted remain. A global union of countries is the only way to commit global capital to the rule of law.

    Looks like it's on a knife edge, but I reckon Greece will cut a deal.



    I've given up trying to second guess what Tspiras will do, he is too unpredictable.

    It's a bit late to be worrying about that now. She should have worried when they "lent" the money in the first place.
    Anyone who thought Greece was a good place to invest the Germans' hard-earned savings must have been insane.

    They didn't just release the kraken, they voted him in as PM, then released him.

    Surely, all Tspiras has to do is call another referendum, then get another no vote, re negotiation again, then repeat.

    Telegraph this morning says Tsipras was expecting a yes vote, and hadn't prepared for what to do in the event of a no vote.

    I think you'll find that China already owns chunks of Europe. Like Weetabix.

    Greece has neither.

    That's because China is smarter than both Russia and Cuba.
