I mean she's horrible to both sides (the iconic Nigel Farage one ) but Queen of news.

The Liberal Democrats are being so opportunistic right now.

They know full well they're never going to get back into government so are trying to win back the youth vote.

My uncle is buying up British pound. He believes this is just a minute of turmoil. He believes the pound will shoot up at least 300% in the long term (3-5 years)

He's usually right about this stuff. He says don't listen to the media they just want to scare everyone else in the world because what the British people did was a big deal. He says good things are always messy in the beginning and to give it time (I agree). I was away when it happened. Just wanted to say congrats to the Brits here on ATRL

Carol Vorderman ‏@carolvorders Jun 24
Last wk money markets gave a "false" high of £/USD 1.50 so % drop seems higher, media going for sensational headline by omission of detail

Carol Vorderman ‏@carolvorders Jun 24
The exchange rate may change further and it may drop ... but I wish that media would stop sensationalising and wanting a terrible story

*then it actually dropped further*

Carol Vorderman ‏@carolvorders Jun 24
Graph of FTSE since 1997..we are over 6,000... Study it and you'll see only three periods above 6,000 in 20 years

What makes you think otherwise, you're only 17 years old with a "24 hour" knowledge of how the economy works.

Rather than be pessimistic about it, why not just have hope?

I'm pretty optimistic but there are greater chances of Mr Blobby being Prime Minister

FX markets are nothing more than the rich few who hedge bets on currencies based on nothing but their own fears and prejudices. Carol's right. This drop has essentially placed it where the pound has been on average this year. This is why Remain lost.
