    When it hits 0.75 Euro that will be a fair reflection of the British economy compared to Euroland.
    Hard Brexit now!

      Sort your tulip out UK

      This weak pound is damaging my retirement plans.

        Surely the mighty City should have made it 100 euros for 1 pound?

        I'd much prefer if UK was making (R&D - not assembly) Mercedes and BMW cars here, rather than 10 Cities.

          I've just worked out what my rate would be if (please when) that happens and it's almost threadedesque.

            On my current contracts I'm mostly paid in €

            Which is nice.

              It's almost cheaper to go to the Seychelles on US$ than it is to go to Benidorm. This is a good thing, no ?

                  Like this....

                  £1 = 2$

                  or

                  £1 = 1.2€

                  All destinations priced in dollars will be significantly cheaper. The Maldives, for example are a bargain at the moment.

                    But where can you buy holidays priced in dollars from here?
