And finally, the threat that Greeks are voting on their eurozone future on Sunday makes the front page of the Tuesday’s Guardian and the Financial Times:
Guardian: Europe’s big guns warn Greek voters that a no vote means euro exit
FT: EU tells Greeks: You’re voting on the euro
Tuesday is going to be historic too — with Greece’s bailout on track to expire at the end of the day, and an IMF default perhaps inevitable too.
And as it’s just turned midnight in the UK, I’d better stop. Thanks all, and goodnight. GW

Before we go….It’s getting nasty in Greece tonight.
If you thought Syriza knew how to turn a tough phrase then listen to this. The anti-capitalist bloc, Antarsya, has in the last few minutes declared that the EU president and German chancellor has declared “a war of fear” on Greece.
Helena Smith reports.
The far-left Antarsya movement– ever growing in popularity and ever present in workers’ associations and trade unions – has just issued a blistering attack against the “black forces of capital” accusing Europe’s leaders of trying not only to influence Sunday’s vote but entrap Greeks in “a war of fear.”
“From Juncker, Merkel and Hollande to Samaras’ New Democracy, Pasok and Potami , they are erecting a nightmarish web over the people of Greece,” the party railed in a statement released after midnight.
“A web of war and insecurity with the aim of blackmailing an entire people into submission so that they can defame it … and loot what has remained of the crumbs with which it has been forced to live in recent years.
So that they can snatch the last piece of bread from the table of the unemployed and pensioners, to steal what has remained unsold from state assets, to destroy every last worker’s right and to eradicate what he has gained with sacrifice and struggle.”
