Re: Post-Brexit Thread

In other news I purchased something in US Dollars today.

Got a majestic $1.29 to the Pound, so the items were about 20% more expensive than normal.

Ouch.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

I got an email from OnePlus, saying that due to the Sterling exchange rate, the OnePlus3 was going to be £20 more expensive, a rise of 7% - I'm glad I order before the price rise.'

Could be worse - we could import half of our food....

The good news is that we are now excellent value for foreign tourists. Maybe some of them will decide to stay

Well that would happen whether the £ was low or high. Money-grabbing twonks the lot. I fear a lot will take advantage and put up prices using it as an excuse. Give a man an inch and he'll take a mile.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

Energy purchased overseas will increase in price. Oil is dominated in dollars.

That is a bit rich seeing The Sun backed Brexit.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

Views of the Political editor doesn't have to reflect that of the paper. Not sure how The Sun decides what to back but I imagine it's the editor/team of editors/Murdoch combo.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

Brexit can be started without parliament vote, government lawyers say

Oliver Letwin, heading Whitehall’s Brexit unit, says legal advice is that article 50 can be invoked under royal prerogative

It's not unexpected and it will settle down when we know a bit more of what a post EU will be like. No one claimed it was gonna be easy.
