The FTSE finished up on the week

What are you defining as a week? Monday 20th June: 6204. Monday 27th June: 6079 and falling.

EDIT: Ah, I guess you mean Thursday-Thursday? Not a particularly useful measurement given it seems logical to me to compare the market with what it would have been had Brexit not happened (i.e. the day before the result), not an arbitrary point in the past. If you think your argument is logically sound however then so be it.

Yes, $2 trillion gets wiped off global stock markets overnight all the time. The FTSE 100 hasn't dropped so much overnight since the market crash in the 80's, the FTSE 250 has never dropped so badly nor has GBP. Just a blip indeed.

How does all this bickering help the OP? Their question was about a flight to the Canaries !!!!!!

I assumed that was fairly obvious... To give me the right for visa free travel and work rights in any EU country...

Fair enough, where are you going and when are you leaving the uk.

Hope you're not trying to have your cake and eat it.

Interestingly I've never understood why Irish access to the uk is so accepted, if you're a separate country then shouldn't that count?

They've already been told every possible bit of information they need. If they need more they can come back and ask. Why people like you sit there reading things you don't want to read then throw a hissy fit about it being there I have absolutely no idea...

New Zealand/Australia and I've pretty much left already.

If by "have my cake and eat it" you mean take advantage of my legal right to become an Irish citizen and possess an Irish passport, I guess I am. Given it doesn't really cost Ireland or the EU anything I'm not sure why that would ever be objectionable?

I guess the bigots are used to Irish being here as it's been happening for centuries what with them sharing an island/the various invasions etc. And they speak English.

Jeez... it's just that this discussion would probably be more appropriate in the Debate sub-forum rather than the holiday one. But hey, fine - as you were.

Which is the best airline to use to get to the Canaries, if my main reason for going is the hope of meeting Jeremy Corbyn there?

The CTA has existed for nearly a century, informally since 1923 and formally since 1925 (with a break for WW2), because it suited both countries, on the UK side because they did not want to have to police the border between the Republic and NI.

You may get your wish soon, last Thursday could bring a united Ireland a step closer and the CTA could be renegotiated

The trading week, Monday opening to Friday closing, it was up around 2%
Monday closing to Monday closing seems an odd period to me

You posted that it had fallen on Sunday morning @02:38
How can you now claim Monday 27th?
