      The trouble is, past devaluations of sterling have not always led to greater competitiveness.

      In the 1960s, they were a cover for higher government spending.

      In the 1970s, they were an excuse for an inflationary wage-price spiral that left nobody better off. This time, we should make sure a cheaper pound strengthens our economy.

      And all from a writer of fiction

      he aslo mentioned was:-

      It [the pound] is now the second worst-performing mainstream currency in the world this year, second only to another peso, the Argentinean one

      To capitalise on this one, we need to find ways of targeting industries that can exploit a cheaper pound,
