Stubb advises UK to join Euro

12.49.26pm GMT Sat 22nd Nov 2008

Alexander Stubb gave a talk at the LSE on Thursday 20th November 2008. In his speech he said that no economy is an island - not even the UK. Protectionism is also something to be avoided at this time. Finland was near to collapse before joining the Euro but is now in a relatively good position.
