 "The new British government under prime minister Theresa May appears to have chosen an economic course which could bear substantial risks," said Hans Redeker, strategist at Morgan Stanley.
Noting that rhetoric against the "international elite" would not help fund the UK's 6 per cent of GDP current account deficit, Mr Redeker said: "The substantial foreign funding needs should make authorities nurse the supply side of the economy. The opposite seems to be taking place with 'hard Brexit' talk adding to the problem."


If there is one big lesson to draw from the surprising success of the Brexit campaign it is surely that Britain's political class has consistently underestimated the negative consequences — psychological, economic and social — of greater global (and European) interconnection on poorer people.


David Cameron took a huge gamble and lost. The fearmongering and outright lies of Boris Johnson, Michael Gove, Nigel Farage, The Sun and the Daily Mail have won. The UK, Europe, the west and the world are damaged. The UK is diminished and seems likely soon to be divided. Europe has lost its second-biggest and most outward-looking power. The hinge between the EU and the English-speaking powers has been snapped. This is probably the most disastrous single event in British history since the second world war.

"British government bonds are being pulled into the Brexit-related sell-off that has sent the pound to its lowest levels in three decades, with investors warily eyeing gilts as the next market facing volatility following Friday's flash crash in sterling.

The pound has fallen 19 per cent against the dollar since the vote for Brexit, increasing the prospect of inflation and raising questions about the negative effect it could have on the country's ability to finance itself through overseas investment.
This has damped appetite for gilts, pushing down prices and sending the yield on benchmark 10-year gilts to as high as 1.02 per cent on Monday — the highest level since late June. Prices and yields for bonds move in opposite directions as lower prices push up borrowing costs"

Hoolahan.

I'd love to punch every pundit who breathes his name.

A journeyman with a half decent pass and truly awful fitness levels.

He never was the answer unless the question was "who is Stephen McPhail's modern equivalent?".

Why Venezuela? Colombia would be a better option. I don't think Venezuela have ever qualified for a world cup.
Fair enough. Venezuela would be a bit cheaper
