This points to stronger market trust in Burnham, but also leaves the currency more exposed if fiscal concerns resurface. Elsewhere, Fedspeak and Strait of Hormuz news should drive most FX moves this week. Risks remain slightly skewed to the upside for USD

Starmer hammered as migration crisis fuels public anger

Sky News host Peta Credlin details how the UK’s migration has become completely out of control after concerns of over-welfare, housing and social cohesion explode. “It’s the welfare payments too, the one thing that’s been retold back to me people know down to the last couple of dollars what these migrants are getting,” Ms Credlin said. “They’re housed in hotels, they’re getting particular payments, they’re getting payments for children and family … there are concerns about safety, cohesion. “It’s just not the numbers crossing the border.

Happy Brexit Day

On June 23, 2016, the British people voted to withdraw from the European Union in a vote called Brexit. Not many people are happy with the outcome after vainglorious promises weren't kept. Experts say the British economy is between 4 and 8 smaller than it would have been had the country voted to remain in the EU. That would translate to much higher living standards and billions more pumped into public services, including the cherished National Health Service, which was promised an extra 350 million pounds (468 million) a week by Brexit campaigners. That pledge was emblazoned on their big red campaigning bus. Brexit has made the U.K. economy smaller than it otherwise would have been, said Jonathan Portes, professor at King's College London. The effect has not been a sudden collapse, but a gradual and cumulative drag on trade, investment and productivity, he wrote in an article for The UK in a Changing Europe think tank.

Despite promises of renewed prosperity, businesses face trade hurdles with the EU, and economists estimate a significant economic contraction.
