Foreign exchange bureaus at one of Britain’s busiest airports were offering just €0.89 for each pound today ahead of the big summer getaway.

With schools across the country set to close for the holidays in the coming week the pound to euro exchange rate hit one of the lowest rates ever seen.

The pound fell below $1.30 on Thursday – its lowest level since September last year -after a surprise fall in retail sales in June, confounding expectations of an increase.

Political turmoil has also pushed the pound down, with a raft of resignations and Brexit uncertainty rattling the markets.

Last summer, travellers going through Southampton airport were offered just 86 euro cents for each pound sterling, thought to be the lowest rate on record.

But several indicators suggest that this summer could match or surpass that low.

Core inflation sunk by 0.1 per cent in June having been expected to rise by 0.3 per cent.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
