What about our investments? What about the economy? What about the £ in our pocket. Well, there’s been (and will continue for a while to be) a Boris Bounce in both the FTSE and sterling; so my holiday glass of rosé will be cheaper this year.

Because we’ll definitely Brexit now and, not sure if I’ve mentioned it before, I don’t think it’s a very good idea.
