Greece Fucked By Membership of Eurozone
Very bad news. #Greece unemployment Q1 2015: 26,6% (vs 26.1% in Q4 2014 & 25.40% est.) http://t.co/v68kKIBdrj /via @statisticsGR

Tsipras Threatens Eurozone
Greece warns EU leaders: Allow us to fail and it's 'beginning of the end' for eurozone http://t.co/qbtWRSdvRX pic.twitter.com/gSUrGWjGrk

The threat is all very well and good, except for the fact that:1 Greece entered the eurozone of its own free will.
2 Greece's entry was on the basis of fraud by the Greek government.
3 The eurozone itself is flawed, and will fail anyway.
4 Greece's best option is to default and leave the eurozone.
5 A "fuck off" fund of money has been set aside to give to Greece when it leave the eurozone.
In other words, the threats are meaningless and irrelevant.

Advice To Tsipras
This isn't a "negotiation", this is a hostage situation.
Your only chance is to try to escape!

Greece Is A Busted Flush
Greece will not pay the IMF today and has instead asked to bundle its payments to the end of the month when, by happenstance, the current bailout ends.
Coincidentally Tsipras has stuck two fingers up to the Troika, and said the terms demanded by the Troika are unacceptable.
At this stage, even the most hopeful/moronic of Europhiles can surely see that Greece is a busted flush and that the best option for the Eurozone, and the Greek people, is to give Greece a wadge of "fuck off money" and ask them to leave the Eurozone.
My advice to hapless people of Greece is simple, if you have any money left in your bank accounts take it out now; because capital controls and bail ins are coming!

Greece and Troika Miles Apart
Despite the bullshit spouted by Tsipras that a deal is imminent, Greece and the Troika are miles apart.
The clearest and simplest evidence of the gulf between them lies in the size of their respective "ultimatums".

The Greek proposal for a deal was 46 pages long. The proposal from the European creditors was five pages long #Greece

No Compromise For Greece
Despite Tsipras attempting to cobble together a 46 page list of reforms, that he hoped would persuade the Troika to release much needed funds, his efforts were in vain.
The Troika cannot be bothered to read the document and has, instead, issued its own document that Tsipras will have to sign if he wants any more money.
Harsh?
In the words of Dijsselbloem:

In the words of Dijsselbloem:
"It is a misunderstanding that we have to meet each other half way.In other words, it's over Greece!
That is not our intention."
Lancing FIFA's Septic Bladder
Now that FIFA's Septic Bladder has been lanced, we will see a tidal wave of puss and poison gushing forth from the last twenty years or so of the financial accounts of that most corrupt of organisations.

The Farce That is The Eurozone
Eurozone has become an utter joke https://t.co/Iwn6RnwQgE

Reuters: EU officials close to the talks have said progress is very slow and they remain a long way from convergence

Given that the world has been subjected to "deal imminent" headlines every few days over the last couple of months or so, I will believe it when I see it!

Tsipras Throws His Toys out of The Pram
Tsipras has thrown his toys out of the pram over the weekend, and vented his spleen against the Troika and the Troika's alleged threat to democracy.
The tantrum was an attempt to yet again persuade Merkel to sway the troika's hand.
She won't!
She can't!
Why does Tsipras not get this?
Greece has choice of leaving the eurozone, and taking control of its own currency. The choice is Greece's, that's democracy!
Tsipras had better stop playing politics with people's lives. There is a full scale bank run going on in Greece now, and the people of Greece need to exit the eurozone if they wish to have a chance of surviving this.
