Welcome to a new series of pithy video comments, spiked shorts, where spiked writers will offer a unique take on the events of the day. The series is produced with WORLDbytes, the citizen TV channel.

In this first edition, spiked‘s Rob Lyons looks at the continuing economic problems in the Eurozone. After a few weeks in which it looked like the situation might stabilise, a new round of spending cuts and demonstrations in Athens, Madrid, Lisbon and Paris suggest that the crisis will carry on for some time. But why lies beneath this continuing instability?
