    It'll be a good 20 years for it to start impacting people. That was the entire point... When truss removes employee rights it'll start getting interesting.

    I think the point of the thread is that it doesn’t look like much has changed.

    The rhetoric from the remainers stating that leave voters had wrecked their children’s future looks to have been all for nothing.

    You’ve blamed the energy prices on Brexit earlier in the thread. Nothing to do with inflation caused by printing £500bn during the pandemic?

    Had to pay a £65 custom charge on a parcel my partner received from her family in France. And I had to pay import duty on a watch I bought direct from the factory in Germany. Brexit ****s can **** off imo.

    Yeah,.the way the pound is tanking since Brexit, I'm consider buying a Premier Club, I can afford one soon the way the exchange rate is tanking. Considering buying Everton if they stay up.

    It's only 85p to a dollar.

    It's been pretty average on that level since 1985 <whistle>

    Clearly, I was joking... But pound is the weakest now it's ever been in my lifetime. It's far weaker than it historically is. About £1 = $1.6 is the normal resting point.


    Currently 1GBP = 1.17USD. Expected to hit parity by years end. A lot of things, like digital assets I've noticed the price is already listed the same in £ as $.

    It was about 1.4USD this time last year. Go back a little over a decade and it was about 2USD. Pound has lost almost half it's value over the last 15 years. (Obviously not all Brexits fault).

    Euro is historically weak at the moment too, almost as bad as the £. Think war in Ukraine is hurting European currencies at the moment.
