The party of sound money is no longer the Conservative Party.
Quote:
Robert Peston In the year to date, the value of the pound against the dollar has fallen by more than a fifth. Against the Euro the fall is a smaller but non-trivial 7%. Against the Swiss Franc the fall is more than 14%. In other words the value of UK assets has collapsed under this government. Think how Labour would be pulverised by much of the media if this had happened under a Labour government.

The Tory reputation - perhaps it’s unique selling point - as the party of sound money is being eviscerated, and apparently as an act of deliberate policy.
