    not really related when that's almost 20%, is it? turns out retaining the ability to set your own interest rates is important

  yeah, they use the pound, which is also almost 1 = 1 with the Euro =)
  • blibble 4y ago
    so by almost you mean almost 20% off? euro-nationalists kept saying after brexit the euro would hit parity (but they expected it to be against the pound, not the dollar)
    • asdadsdad 4y ago
      inflation is at 9% tho

      lol, ok, fair. I guess people would expect the pound to lose power due to Brexit in the long term
