    Don't worry fellow Brit Brothers, you got the Americans back all these years were in this together. Trump is there now ( for the record I didn't vote for him )  he is going to put the Great back into Britain as soon as confirmation there is a trade deal the pound will be going back up but of course, don't even think 50 be happy 42?????

    a US trade deal is would barely be worth the paper it was written on to the UK,We barely manufacture anything these days and what we do is geared to european markets/standards,you can rule out cars or anything automotive,electronics,white goods,aviation as we are airbus orientated,food,medicine. whiskey and rolls royce engines are about the only worthwhile exports and they are already traded so no great gain,new avenues will not arise and even more so with nappy man's america first poicy

    It will go lower in the short term for sure because of the uncertainty .. It will go lower still if no deal because all the forecasters , IMF etc are saying it will be a disaster .. Once established that it is not the end of the world it will go higher IMO 

    i agree it will go higher,it will rise like a phoenix from 30 to 31-32,anyone else on here noticed most of the brexiteers have Brit/UK/Unionjacks/or famous British names from history in the profiles

    7. United Kingdom - 37.7 million visitors

    https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/10-most-visited-countries-in-the-world.html

     

    You forget to mention the UK in your list of most pouplar visited countries

    the brexiteer stated france was a shit hole,i merely stated it was the no 1 visited country in the world,where the UK came wasnt an issue,it was about where i expected it to be,but it could rise with our EU friends nipping across the channel on booze cruises to stock up with the pound being knackered

    The exchange rate is clearly abysmal and the reasons the pound is so weak are old news but its not all about the pound.  I just cannot understand how strong the baht is. Despite what Mr. Prayut and his government say about the Thai economy, every business owner I've talked to (both Thai and foreigner) in Thailand says things are grim. The manager of a Thai builder's merchants told me that the first 3 months of this year were their worst on record.  Short term 'propping' of an economy may be possible I guess but this has been going on for years - why has the baht remained so strong? A strong baht = problems for exporters no?

     

    Normally when a country is take over in a military coup, its currencey sinks to the value of toilet paper - didn't seem to happen in Thailand - how come?

    iam aware all of the pounds fall is not down to brexit but since the vote 70-80% of the loss is brexit related,i await the usual brexiteers moans because i have used percentage example.

    Try supporting a religion in China or denouncing the ruling party in Russia or getting free healthcare in the US. All things we take for granted.

    The French infrastructure is heavily subsided by its government which is overburdened financially (98.4% of GDP v UK 84.7%) and has a socialist if not militant workforce.

     

    i doubt many expats in china are interested in religion,russia you mentioned earlier but your clutching at straws,USA we are all fully aware of the healthcare set up there so again your desperate,french infrastructure you are correct about but it is good.

    I don't understand what you're trying to say ....

     

    I don't know if you are British but it's not a "crap country", try living in Africa, China, Mexico or Russia.

    Granted, the politics at the moment are abhorrent but that's only because we're stuck on the most crucial decision in our lifetimes.

    I hope your children won't need free healthcare, free primary and secondary education and a social system that catches pretty much the most vulnerable.

     

    The UK, like any other country isn't perfect but it's far from a shit hole. Trust me...I've been to France! ????

     

     

    in 2016 £44 billion was spent by Brits in the EU,given that since brexit the pound has dropped on average at least 10% thats at least £4.5 billion lost to the UK,times it by 3 = £13.5 billion and thats before adding on all the non EU spending USA/Thailand/turkey etc where is also down,and its probably another £13.5 billion,then there's businesses extra cost to take into account and its mind boggling,yet brexiteers claim the EU will collapse because 27 nations would have to find another £9 billion between them,even if germany paid the lot its only €0.80 per week per citizen.rule brittania ????

    you will find free health care free,primary schools and free secondary schools are common place within the EU,and most wont be charging £9.00 for perscriptions or paying alcoholics extra benefits,France is the no1 most visited county on the planet if i remember correctly and certainly has a bit more going for it than the UK,mexico is popular with expats and holiday makers,china has good area's and a few  expats,same as various areas of africa.iam afraid the terraces have taken its toll on you,no surrender,rule britannia and all that rubbish.

    Well, I am trying to talk with posters and they keep telling what other people in pubs have said .

    Why dont you go and talk with the people in the pubs or get them to post on here ?

    you would love them on here,they are like you,the EU is to blame for most things that have gone wrong in their lives,€4.00 euros for a beer in greece is the all EUs fault,????   the sooner we are out the better they say ????????  brain dead pond life is what i call them.

    No, I dont mean that 

    when you choose your next place to relocate to make sure they have proper banana's i'd hate to see you get all upset over a banana,a tip for you just buy them individually at a set price to avoid getting upset,it might work out more expensive but it avoids any unwanted issue's and stress.
