General Election 2019 (UK)

Interesting comments.

I sorta thght a Cons win would mean a decisive Brexit and GBP strengthen.

If no overall majority, would def be looking to sell.

Can't see Con Maj drifting much more than this b4 exit poll

One day someone will get a grant to do a PHd on the effect of exchanges on forex mkts etc (at election time)

It would be cheap money to spook the exchange mkts, to get some massive positions on forex .. if exchanges are watched etc.

I'm going up the shops in a bit to stock up in case there's nothing on the shelves tomorrow...

That was a nice little move

Tory 340 or more was at 2s a few hours ago, now out to 2.48

[megarain]

Con Maj 1.57 ..

Cable 1.3108 .. which looks out of whack a little, so closed position.

Be interesting to keep a spreadsheet of Maj mkt and cable. Will open one - will try update every so often.

I do wonder where social media is going. Can you imagine a campaign say 30 years ago like the modern ones?

Anybody can say anything they want and facts are really out the window nowadays. It's just a question of hitting hot buttons and deflecting the truth.

I wonder whether social media should require people should do a KYC or something so that people can be held accountable for comments they make. Or at least make an attempt to verify a person. It just doesn't seem like it's headed for a good place.

I can see why people say democracy is under threat from these platforms. Maybe I'm just getting old

I thought sight gets blurred with age, seems you have 20/20 and are seeing with clarity.

Con Maj back to 1.51

Cable 1.3086 so opened a small long spread at 1.3082
