Danes divided over introducing euro currency

Copenhagen - As the Danish government mulls a possible referendum date on Denmark's opt-outs from the European Union, a new survey published Monday suggested a dead heat over introducing the joint European currency, the euro.

A Gallup poll commissioned by the Berlingske Tidende newspaper indicated that 47 per cent of voters want to introduce the euro while 45 per cent were against replacing the krone.

Just two weeks ago a similar poll indicated 52 per cent favoured introducing the euro while 40 per cent were against, the daily said.

In a key speech last week, Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Denmark was "harmed" by the opt-outs and the government was considering a referendum.
