Comments on the clue

1.	The topicality is a little forced, but it's a very good anagram idea
2.	Very good wordplay but I can't see "Euro in freefall" as an instance of "degringolade". The example would be the Euro not its fall.
3.	A very nice anagram & a.i., but the definition doesn't really work. A pity that it mars an excellent surface.
