How far does it have to drop before Gordon has to stand outside 10 Downing Street and give a speach?
Hasn't it already dropped more in the last year or two two than in recorded history? The one in the 1970s being a trifling 14% or so?Comment

I have business accounts in £ & $. Apart from losing a couple of % in commission, is my company allowed to shift money back and forth to make a profit, or would I need to change the way my business is classified?
