    ^ This.

    Even if the polls said it was now 99% Brexit odds, the actual result will be Bremain, by 1 or 2% margin.

    I'm so sure it will be remain, if we actually Brexit, I will flounce from CUK forever, never to return....

    So currently at 1.27 so could drop by as little as 7 or as much as 22.

    Or something else.

    Interesting and yet largely irrelevant.

    Oh no.........Gidiot says "the hit to the economy might be worse than forecast". So yet another flawed forecast then? What a trumpet!!

    And this coming amidst suggestions that the last few days of campaigning should be focusing on the positives.

    Indeed, it was down to 1.02 or thereabouts and the world didn't come to an end.

    I have a one euro coin in my war chest so if it does happen - BOOMED, not DOOMED

    The bounce on Bremain will also be doom, depending on your perspective. However, the upside is probably 5-10% max, whereas the downside is probably 10-30%. The downside will take a while to feed through into inflation though - perhaps a year - so, unless it persists, it's largely irrelevant (good, even).
