"Soaring"? Take the choice of what word was applied up with the Independent Raggy.

Did the pound gain in strength? - Yes it did.

Will it always gain in strength? - No it won't. Currencies fluctuate and the fluctuations we have experienced since the Brexit Referendum are no different to any we have periodically experienced previously. In short the Pound Sterling has NOT gone through the floor as some remoaner tried to tell us all.

The dire predictions of voting "Leave" voiced by the Remain Campaign have not materialised, which must be rather galling for the likes of Shaw.
