    I knew they were suffering "hyper inflation", but I had no idea how "hyper"!!!!

    The pound is plummeting!

    1 British Pound = 21,450,168 Zimbabwe Dollar

      . . . and in financial news, the pound rallied against the Zimbabwean Dollar to start the day at 1.00 GBP = 24,338,207,063.76 ZWD, after a disastrous close yesterday.

      Phew!

        I'm impressed someone works it out to 2 decimal places.

            GBP will be at parity by the end of the year.
            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

              When it gets to 32,000,000,000 I'm selling my worthless pounds.
