I agree gf its getting very expensive here in Spain ots not cheap to live anymore and the result is Brits are going to Turkey/Morocco etc. I was getting 1.50 euros 3 years back and now 1euro.

The pound dropping will help british exports, you can be sure that it is only a matter of time before half Europe will be buying industrial goods over here rather than in their own countries....the /Euro has to settle before the big orders start to roll in; so in the short term we will suffer but we will come back quite strongly next year sometime with plenty of exports to come, the negative point is holidays abroad and imports of raw materials and if the pound remains low for the next 6 months or so :quite a few foreign firms will be setting up business over here !.

What industries would that be then required field.
I did`nt realize we had any worthwhile industries left.
Just what are we going to export if no one is buying.
Why on earth would foreign companies want to set up in a country that is on it`s last legs.
