Best way to protect £50,000 - convert to Euros pre-Brexit?

According to one ex EU veteran of negotiations , a deal today is unlikely but by the end of December more likely .
If he is right then getting the timing of buying Euros, and then back into Sterling could be tricky .
I would think you are just as likely to get it wrong as you are to get it right .1 -

but Premium Bonds are a decent shout from wizzards, and, accepting that there's no FSCS protection, i keep some cash with my local co-op generating a much better rate than you are achieving at the moment.1
