UK leaves the euro's last-chance saloon

http://www.euronews.net/ The summit billed as the last chance to save the eurozone has ended with all-but-one EU leaders agreeing on the need for closer economic integration. Only Britain refused to take part.

The 26 are working on a new treaty, which will inevitably lead to the surrender of some national sovereignty.

"It is about more fiscal discipline, more automatic sanctions, stricter surveillance. This Treaty will be open to non eurozone countries, except for one all are considering participation," said the President of the European Council, Herman van Rompuy.
