Nigel Farage warns of EU 'mass unrest' and 'revolution'

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-18014552


UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage has warned that some EU countries face "mass civil unrest, possibly even revolution" as a result of austerity cause by the euro crisis.

He told the European Parliament the rise of "extreme" parties "could cause the rebirth of National Socialism" in countries such as Greece.

Mr Farage, whose party wants the UK to leave the EU, urged an end to the eurozone project.

It was "headed the wrong way", he said.

In Greece, the leader of the left-wing Syriza bloc, Alex Tsipras, has tried to form a government following inconclusive elections on Sunday.

You take way people's only really safety net while propping up the people that caused the fall.
How did they think this was going to turn out?
