New £20 Note

well you can...when everyones economy lines up...however that is never the case thus why some countries economies got stung by joining the euro and others prospered at an increased rate...its mostly the reason the UK doesnt join the euro as we would get stung by a single bank policy (aswell as all that patriotic lose its identity, never felt it was part of the EU lark)

thats my basic understanding of it anyway, pick it apart all you want
I'd say I'm against the euro purely for the economic reasons. And I suppose I have to take other people's word for it that it's a bad idea since I don't have a clue about it myself. If it wasn't bad for the economy then I'd think it's a great idea.
 
I thought this was Great Britian, England, Wales and Scotland United Under one goverment, One Country.

Then I hear things like, "we dont want your people on our currencey", Then I think, i thought we were one country, one people, just different accents.

I look in my pocket now i see 3x English £10 Notes and 1x English £20 Notes, I dont care if there English, I dont care if they got an english rolemodel on it, so what, its only a picture.

Most people I meet in my travels are nice enough, but you get the select few that just think they are a superiour country.

Of course I know there is a proportion of scottish people who think the same, and both sides just gotta grow up.

One Britian, Many Cultures.

p.s. This dont mean that I would like a picture of Allah the Muslim God on our Britiah Notes :)
 
Mmm this means I have to get my illegally earned used £20 out of my safe, and exchage them at the bank.

Bugger.
 
The irony is that most English people argue that Scots perpetuate racism by refusing to support England in sporting events and then object to a Scot on their banknotes! the fact that he was one of the most influential economists in the world doesn't seem to come into it. Gordon Brown is a Scot, does that make him unfit to be Prime Minister?

All the more reason to have a UK team instead of separate ones. It's stupid the way it is now.

On that note, I think we should have an image of the prophet Muhammed on them, just to make a point.

Agreed, Adam Smith was a great man and probably deserves the accolade but there are way too many jocks represented all over the UK so we don't need another on an ENGLISH bank note.


If it wasn't for people like Adam Smith we probably wouldn't have a bank note at all, GROW UP :mad: maybe you should read his work before quoting?

***, I think a lot of people here need to grow up, if they dislike the note that much, do something better than post in this thread about it.
