German opposition to euro hardening again
By Andrew Gimson in Berlin

THE trend for Germans to accept the euro has stopped and hostility
towards the new currency is growing again, according to an opinion poll
published yesterday.

It shows 45 per cent of respondents against the new currency, with 37
per cent in favour. The same poll, by the Psephos Institute in Potsdam,
had registered a continual fall in the number of opponents, from 58 per
cent in January to only 42 per cent in June, while the number of
supporters grew over the same period from 30 to 39 per cent.

The Handelsblatt business newspaper speculated that Chancellor Kohl's
complaints to the European Union that Germany contributes too much had
caused Euro-scepticism to rise. Only a fifth of respondents regard the
euro as important in determining how they vote in the general election
on Sept 27, but nine per cent said they would only support a party that
was against the new currency.
