Should the UK adopt The Euro?
A cross-section survey of 1000 people in the UK, made up of Afghans, Albanians, Pakistanis, Indians, Poles, Iraqis, Somalis, Bosnians, Turks, Moldavians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Bangladeshis, Ethiopians, Russians, Congolese, Zimbabweans, Portuguese and Nigerians were asked if they thought Britain should change its currency to Euro.
99.9% said no, they were happy with the Giro.

As a joke it's moderatly amusing. As the 'truth' it's grossly erroneous.

If only you included the English, Welsch and Scottish in there as well it could be seen as childish bad tast humor...
No I think it is just a silly unfounded comment

British humour used to be the ability to laugh at yourself and others. To take the p out of yourself and your friends.
Unfortunately political correctness has reduced British humour to the level of mundane blankness. Lowest common denominator rules OK.

I am disappointed by the because you don't find this joke funny you must be part of the PC brigade brigade not accusing naysayers of having a sense of humour bypass or of being "brain-donors"
jokes are like opinions, which are like arseholes, and that joke certainly is one, but that's just my elbow, though everyone has one
