Sewa - Where did I say that you f*cking moron, it was written in the article. Stop being such a prat all the time. Well your line quotes ''a no deal Brexit is seen as another millenium bug''.

I think it would be best if we all just accepted we cannot come to an accommodation and parted as friends with no deal. The EU quite rightly will accept nothing less than the UK keeping the ECJ as the final say in matters of law and the UK staying within the customs union. Either one of these thing...

Shereblue......

If you had read the previous comments from Sewa re GBPUSD and how sh*t it was because of Brexit you would understand what was being discussed. Or maybe not and that's not my fault.

Why would it not be in everyone’s interest to have as few barriers to trade as possible ? You yourself put the answer to this above. It sets a bad precedent.
