Or Deutsche Bank's being brought to the front of the stability test queue? <br /><br />I honestly don't know and don't have anything other than a layman's opinion. But I do rather hope our Brexit debt is denominated in Euros and drink to the prospect of £1 = €2 in 2020, despite the hit our exporters will take. <br /><br />Silly, I know.
