Do major commodities for travel companies such as fuel and leasing planes get traded in euros? I never knew that!
Meanwhile on planet reality the pound is at a thirty year low against the u.s dollar.
You getting it yet?
The US dollar is at a high against nearly every currency you plonker,from mid june the pound lost 10 cents or about 7%,the Euro has lost about 4% against the dollar in the same period as has the Yen,Ausy dollar in fact nearly every currency stop making it up.

The Euro is also under pressure against other "safe haven currencies" ( the pound used to be one of those) because of our brexit. If you had a clue about how it worked it would be worth discussing but you should stop embarrassing yourself and start talking about how immigration is going to fall because of us leaving. Oh wait a minute. <doh>

So every world currency is under pressure apart from the US dollar because of us,<laugh> <somersault> :grin: try reading your own posts and you might realise how stupid they are.And you don't understand that if we don't let in 3 million Poles,Romainian etc immigration will fall <yikes> what planet you on ?
 
I started a travel company last week, I got thousands of upset whinging remainiacs to book holidays abroad now I've closed it down and am running off with the money, I blame brexit, they'll understand, it wasn't my incompetence, honest guv

Behave Chipster.

The FTSE 100 stands at its highest point this year, the FTSE 250 has nearly recovered all its losses from before the referendum and is more than 1500 points higher than its February low.

Sterling has depreciated, but this is no bad thing. Every major economy in the world has been trying to depreciate its currency over the last few years, its one of the reasons global interest rates are so low. Now that our currency has depreciated it means our assets are that much more attractive to foreign investors, and our goods and services are that much cheaper for foreign consumers - e.g. Port Talbot steel is currently 8% more competitive.

Despite threats to the contrary, not a single UK based company has moved its operations abroad, yet numerous foreign companies have reiterated there dedication to UK investment, development and job creation.

And finally, we have countries lining up to do trade deals with us - India now extremely hopeful they can finally have a European trading partner. Even the US has been knocking on the door, as have Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Iceland, Mexico, Switzerland …(do you want more, I have them <ok>).

The REAL fact is that the UK economy is extremely robust. It is the world’s fifth largest, well diversified and supported by open, liquid, solvent, established and world-renowned institutions. It is time to forget the emotionally fuelled threats and depressing predictions from the sour graped leave voters . When we look at the facts and consider our future as a Sovereign, established and great Country, there is a lot of good news on the horizon <cheers>.

As for Lowcost holidays - anyone stupid enough to use a company not ATOL registered deserves to lose their money for being said stupid <ok>
