It's no wonder the Chinese were not prepared to bailout the Eurozone when you have nonsense like this.

They were the largest until a couple of years ago when Poland took the crown. I've no doubt there are now similar horror stories there.

Still, you never know, when Greece finally goes belly up some of these drivers might come over here to work the Todmorden Curve line, with a little hardship sweetner thrown in. No doubt GJ will be fully supportive of this measure
