It devalued instantly after the unexpected voting result, but has since then recovered.

Compared to historical shifts over past decades, the impact of Brexit is not very visible on a chart. The falls from 1970 to 1975, or 1980 to 1985, or in 2008, are clearly more dramatic.

Recovered?

Nonsense. The historical trend for the pound is to be worth $1.5 whereas it’s trundled along around $1.2 since. Stop making up excuses for the disaster that is brexit.

No sane nation would leave the EU.
