Support for the EU in Norway falls to record low of just 12%...

Supporters of the European Union in Norway are at their lowest ever ebb after a new poll put Norwegian support for joining the bloc at just 12 percent.

While many no longer care, 72 percent of Norwegians say they do no want the country to join the EU, according to new numbers from pollster Synovate. As crisis upon crisis sweeps the continent, 65 percent of the pro-EU Conservative party was revealed to be against joining.

One member of 'No to the EU' — an organization promoting Norway’s role in the non-bloc European Economic Area — said Norwegians “will not choose voluntarily to board the Titanic”.

 The group's director, Heming Olaussen, said the economic criticism against the countries of the Mediterranean amounted to an attack on democracy. Full story...
