I mean in the end we're all supposed to be derived from the same monkeys, aren't we? so why would it be impossible to have the same rules, same money and same rights for everyone without imagining a line somewhere in a forest or desert beyond which you pay 20 EUR more for a PS3 game or get stoned for being raped or something like that?
Just because it allows you(in general) to think you're better than "the others", the beyond-border-people, is not a valid reason.

Because we don't necessarily want the same rules, and our economies don't have the same needs which could be accomodated by the same currency.

Show me how it will benefit the UK before you start putting up strawmen about needless nationalist willy-waving.
