Quiet start to the week for sterling

There were no major economic figures released for the UK yesterday. Brexit-related news continued to dominate as MPs were starting to debate the European Union Bill and possible amendments.

Commons speaker John Bercow said he would be ‘strongly opposed’ to Trump addressing parliament during his planned state visit.

The only significant data released this week is manufacturing production, so it will continue to be politics, not data, which could move the pound.
