Fantastic news!
The GBP has hit a new high of 1.15 against the (horrible dead currency) Euro.
The growth of 0.03 over the last month shows the unreserved confidence that the WORLD (yes the W-O-R-L-D) has in the economic growth of the British Empire - sorry (got ahead of myself) the UK.
The EU is now getting really worried about how fantastic the growth is and businesses all over the World will be queuing up to set up shop in the UK because the KNOW how great we are.
There are already stories of hundreds of new businesses which have moved from the EU to the UK - I read it here so it must be true.
That will show our 'friends' in the EU.
Proof that we were right - leaving the EU was the correct decision.
We are in a wonderful position to trade and invest in.
That shows all those who doubted us - good strong growth is important and the economy in the UK is now B-O-O-M-I-N-G.
We won - get over it! |

"Im sure there was a thread last week doubting it would increase.
Somethings working then. "
I think it's to make fun of a popular forum user who regularly celebrates minor currency fluctuations. Pretty much in the exact same way the OP has. |

We like it when you celebrate the pound being low against the euro with lobster themed parties. |

The pound..... being.... HIGH.... against the Euro.....
It’s on all UK citizens to use our new purchasing power in the summer to boost the struggling Euro economy. They need our help. |

Wow. So if you're this excited about the value of the pound against the Euro now (while it's really low), what were you like before the referendum?
I'm picturing every night like the fellas from The Hangover movie. |

GBP is now sitting at a whopping 12.75% higher rate that it was when it was at its lowest in 2008.
A definite sign of strong growth and shows that the markets are following the UK's successful exit from the evil EU.
Experts are quick to remind us that not only is this a 12.75% increase from am all time low but also a 3 year high.
The Pound to Euro rate has averaged €1.33 over its full 20-year history however these figures should be ignored as they do not fit in with the positive Brexit message that we should be embracing.
Remember - only quote facts if they help augment the success of leaving the EU otherwise carefully select parts of newsworthy items that can be used to do the same.
Truth should never get in the way of our message.
We won - get over it.

You predicted the pound having a low value, you predicted job losses, businesses losing money, extra red tape and extra costs trading with the EU?

I mean I have.
By A. Reading about all the problems caused by brexit.
And. B. Looking up the value of the pound.
Speak for yourself when you say you haven't seen anything. I like to keep up to date with what's going on.

I’ve not read any of the above post on this thread, as soon as I saw an EU flag I knew it would be a absolute load of bollocks by some deranged fisher person. I’m off for a serious conversation with my teddybear over a large whisky & a smoke or 2 xx |

It is childishly easy, and hence a waste of my fellow forum goers time, to bat away random third hand claims of what Nora in Devizes said about what she overheard in the supermarket.
What we are all waiting for is for you and others to present hard evidence that we can debate, we nearly got there with the steel industry for example. |

Who has discredited him? He has posted a few times in full detail about the changes to his business forced on him by people who don't fully understand their own rules and systems. His first thread in January even detailed what steps he had taken to offset the expected problems, but he was caught out by the sheer scale of the clusterfuck.
He describes at length the real world problems you are responsible for with your vote. He was driving a well serviced vehicle but you loosened his wheel nuts.
If you choose to ignore the evidence presented it's not discredited, you just haven't read and understood it. |

The particular poster you're referring to has detailed changes caused by the new VAT enforcement to make sure all countries are paying their taxes, rather than the Wild West state that Brussels permitted. |

"As of 13:25 today pound against the euro is 1.1455
Yep going up as I predicted. Yet you appear to want it to go down and the country to fail, bit sad. "
Just a critique of your Crystal ball gazing skills.
But these are not the wild swings you initially predicted. If you remember correctly from an earlier thread I said the movements would be sluggish over the short to medium term.
Here is a historical perspective
27-05-2016 1.3156
14-02-2020 1.2047
Weak pound = Cheaper exports
Strong pound = Cheaper imports
Which one do you want ?

"GBP is now sitting at a whopping 12.75% higher rate that it was when it was at its lowest in 2008.
A definite sign of strong growth and shows that the markets are following the UK's successful exit from the evil EU.
Experts are quick to remind us that not only is this a 12.75% increase from am all time low but also a 3 year high.
The Pound to Euro rate has averaged €1.33 over its full 20-year history however these figures should be ignored as they do not fit in with the positive Brexit message that we should be embracing.
Remember - only quote facts if they help augment the success of leaving the EU otherwise carefully select parts of newsworthy items that can be used to do the same.
Truth should never get in the way of our message.
We won - get over it.
"
You do know it was 1.33 the day before the brexit vote don’t you..... nice of you to choose 2008 though
But hey.. you keep pounding out that small victory like North Korean state media does a nuclear launch! |

These are my favourite posts.
Imagining that something will happen. Then guessing what someone would say to you in this hypothetical scenario.
Then getting offended by what you imagine someone might say to you in this hypothetical scenario.
Can we have more of this in general please? |

15 mins, , what is the yearly average since we left the EU?
So you admit you just told a little fib yes?
Progress
15 mins ?
If people want to celebrate the 15 minutes that the pound was over £1.15 by a mere £0.0054. Then just imagine what life was like prior to the referendum when the pound was at £1.32.
It's very amusing seeing remainers call it fluctuations when it's solidly risen 3 points in a few weeks since I told you that's what would happen.
Oh by the way it's at 1.16 right now.
At 13:05 today it’s showing at 1.1554
So nearly 1.16....
A 3 cent change over three weeks .... riches beyond our wildest dreams. "
I think you're showing a little unawareness of how significant these figures are.
Net worth of the UK is about 9.8 trillion.
With a 3 point increase in euro rate (and 5 points on the dollar) our collective net worth has gone up by 392 billion.
In six weeks.
Brexit benefits.
More to come. |

I put it to you, that remainers do less damage to the value of the pound speaking. Than leavers do by voting leave.
Exhibit A. Value of the pound dropped by 16 points the day after the referendum result.
Exhibit B. Value of the pound dropped by 4 points the day after the transition period ended. |

Why it fell? Markets dislike uncertainty more than anything as it prevents them pricing assets accurately.
Remainers taking legal action to overturn a democratic votes etc etc is just selfish and unpatriotic.
Fortunately as more and more remainers see the light and get with the program we will recover from this blip and soar to new heights. |

Wowzers. So currency value isn't impacted by economy, and doesn't take into account a member of the biggest trading block in the world, voting to leave.
But currency is impacted by a fella with a megaphone.
Absolutely incredible (if true). |

I think within 5 years we won t need to talk about the euro as it will be a dead currency a bit like Esperanto was a flop. The italians are leaning more and more toward leaving the eu the germans hungary and i believe greece all got their covid vaccines themselves and did not wait for the eu consortium. It looks like the eu bubble has burst and is slowly deflating. Think we will soon see the secret sect in brussels starting to panic and trying to blag their way into new "real" jobs |

Nailed it. The Euro currency is identical to a constructed language.
Tell us one thing, how are you aware of this "secret sect"? Doesn't sound very secret if people know about it. |

Nothing secret about them at. I thought you would have known what I was talking about if you know much about the EU. Seems you support an organisation you know little about though. Now there's a surprise  |

And where have I claimed to know about a lot about the EU? |

I didn't say you claimed to know a lot.
So you don't support the EU and there's a lot wrong with it but you wanted to remain in it.
Ok,I guess there's not much I can say to that |

Of course. Leave the EU presents a hefty list of negatives. No upside. So why leave!
No one said the EU is perfect. But that doesn't mean we should chop our balls off to spite our knob.

"Lobsters all round

Get your orders in quick. UK lobster businesses are going out of business. "
I believe 98% of the fishing industry were advised by their federation to vote leave, i really hope they have sacked their federation after such poor advise. |

Sorry for delay. But work comes first
Secret sect as in the european commissioners as we all know who they are but no one really knows what they do.
As for the euro that is just a personal opinion. Based on talkong to friends who live in spain italy and france over the last few months. Both italy and france shops still show the prices of items in lira and francs respectivly next to the euro price |

I have traveled all over Italy on at least 25 occasions and I can state that I have never seen anything priced in lira . Apparently the only people who still use it are criminals and the mafia |

I remember going to Italy for the first time when they still used Lira and it was about 1,700 to the £. When you bought things they often gave you sweets instead of coins as change as they couldn’t afford to mint any more coins. |

I have a house in France and spend quite a lot of time there and I can confirm that many shops show prices in Euros and Francs. I have always thought it is to help elderly people understand the prices better. |

And in Spain a lot of estate agents still show house prices in euros and pesetas. And on a slightly different note, I was living in Spain when the Euro was introduced and poor people became poorer virtually overnight as a lot of shops and bars etc converted things from 100 pesetas to 1 Euro (166 pesetas) but hey, that's EU progress for ya |

I remeber while working for a large global bank hearing when the euro first came into being that both france and germany were storing most of their currency in big warehouses incase the euro went tits up. Never saw proof though . Wonder if other eu members did the same |

“Secret sect as in the european commissioners”
I worked for 13 years in the European Parliament and 12 years for the Commission (and still most of my friends preferred to believe what they’d read on the side of a bus).
The only “secret sects” are Masonic ones, the same as in any professional organisation such as the police, judiciary, medicine and banking. My best English friend is London Rank, my best French friend is GODF and in fact the only place they DO work together “in amicable relation” is in the European Institutions (we don’t talk about Propaganda Due even though my Italian boss was listed in the Parlamentare d’Inchiesta sulla Loggia Massonica P2).
As for the euro, firstly we LIVE in France and haven’t seen any dual pricing for MANY years. The last vestiges of amounts in both euro and FRF I can recall were bank statements and tax demands.
Anybody who’s had to deal with European financing is familiar with the progression from the EUA (European Unit of Account, Brits knew it as the EMU) to the ECU (European Currency Unit) used for international contracts, budgeting etc. Notwithstanding ERM, there were still exchange rate differences, getting smaller with each monthly publication, but still significant enough for my salary to be paid into a Luxembourg bank who would “arbitrage” the ECU it to increase its worth before putting it into my current account. Since 1999 of course, when the exchange rate differences became so small that it was easy for the “virtual” ECU to be replaced by the “real” euro at parity, a Luxembourgish euro is the same as a French one. It will NEVER revert back to as it was before, even if a euro might not in future buy as much in one country as it would in another.
So today, when a French company contracts something with a German one, when the goods finally come through its euro price is fixed and already known. But the UK opted out of the ERM (remember Black Wednesday?), and are the present sterling fluctuations something to cheer about? When (if?) the French company orders something from a UK one, what will be the final invoice cost? The banks love it though, it’s why we never joined the euro!
I do hope I’ve explained it to you… I can’t understand it for you, though. |

"New high on the Euro just reached.
But carry on rubbishing your country. "
Just so we're clear. 100% crystal clear, anyone who does not eat lobster and parties wildly whenever the pound is super low in value, and there is a micro fluctuation, is "rubbishing the country".
Meanwhile people who voted to slump the pound and damage the economy are what, heroes? |

How has the slumped pound damaged the economy?
Personally I hope the pound doesn't rise much higher.
But a serious question - why do you think the pound is steadily rising? |

I think once the dust settles on covid then a lot of the eu countries will try to leave and reinstate their own currency.
The euro was a good idea for trading but each country should have kept its own identity . Like us |

Those aren't my words. Personally I don't know what you voted for. But I doubt it was the reality of brexit. But what do I know. |

1. I didn't say it has.
2. Fine. Capt Lobster is celebrating wildly about the currency fluctuations, not me.
3. The pound is slowly recovering from the brexit damage. But I don't know why. Will it get back to pre referendum levels? Who knows. |

Well when I bought my house in France about 5 1/2 years ago the rate was £1 to 1.40 euros.
I’m trying to decide whether to keep my house or sell it at the moment so would like the rate to not improve for 6 months to work in my favour Lol
Selfish I know.  |

Does anyone remember that kid in school who used to catch onto something - albeit slowly at first - then wouldn't let go of it for a whole school year when everybody else had.
He was the 'Lobster' kid.

"Pound against the Aussie dollar biggest jump for a year upto 1.80 blimey
So low.
Was 2.04 prior to the referendum.
For 5 minutes.
Was at 1.46 in March 2013, riddle me that. "
2013 was prior to the brexit referendum being a reality. So I would suggest this is unrelated to brexit.
I'm just pointing out that since brexit, the value of the pound has tanked. I am not suggesting you can't continue to celebrate these micro fluctuations. Just suggesting that some context would be useful. |

If people want to celebrate the 15 minutes that the pound was over £1.15 by a mere £0.0054. Then just imagine what life was like prior to the referendum when the pound was at £1.32.
It's very amusing seeing remainers call it fluctuations when it's solidly risen 3 points in a few weeks since I told you that's what would happen.
Oh by the way it's at 1.16 right now.
It's very amusing seeing you call it a soaring currency when it's solidly dropped 17 points since the referendum.

You'll still be calling it fluctuations when it hits 1.40 in June.

No it didn’t , Fake News
11.30 to 11.45 Greenwich Mean Empire Time, yes it did.
15 mins, , what is the yearly average since we left the EU?
So you admit you just told a little fib yes?
Progress
15 mins ?
If people want to celebrate the 15 minutes that the pound was over £1.15 by a mere £0.0054. Then just imagine what life was like prior to the referendum when the pound was at £1.32.
It's very amusing seeing remainers call it fluctuations when it's solidly risen 3 points in a few weeks since I told you that's what would happen.
Oh by the way it's at 1.16 right now.
It's very amusing seeing you call it a soaring currency when it's solidly dropped 17 points since the referendum.
Did you break out more lobster?
You'll still be calling it fluctuations when it hits 1.40 in June.
Pah, just fluctuations, tish and pish.
And they call us gammons, just lol.
1.40 in June??
We're in what Friedman would call a temporary market irrationality phase at the moment.
1.40 by June?
I don't recall my exact wording
