A Prime Minister resigned. The £ plummeted. The FTSE 100 lost significant ground. But then the £ rallied past February levels, and the FTSE closed on a weekly high: 2.4% up on last Friday, its best performance in 4 months. President Obama decided we wouldn't be at the 'back of the queue' after all and that our 'special relationship' was still strong. The French President confirmed the Le Touquet agreement would stay in place. The President of the European Commission stated Brexit negations would be 'orderly' and stressed the UK would continue to be a 'close partner' of the EU. A big bank denied reports it would shift 2,000 staff overseas. The CBI, vehemently anti-Brexit during the referendum campaign, stated British business was resilient and would adapt. Several countries outside the EU stated they wished to begin bi-lateral trade talks with the UK immediately. If this was the predicted apocalypse, well, it was a very British one. It was all over by teatime. Not a bad first day of freedom, and it was lovely this evening on our little beach up here in Yorkshire Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
And myself and 16 million other UK residents have just been stripped of our EU citizenship against our will overnight. A good prime minister has just resigned (quite rightly) and there's turmoil in Scotland again. I can't help but feel incredibly sad.
Well, we've just been doing the weekends shopping in Morrisons and the cashier said to the Polish couple in front of us "do you want help with your packing"I thought she's a bit eager!!Regards allJohnSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
