As I said earlier, the euro rate is not a particularly good indicator because it has had a devaluation against the dollar as well. Anyway, this is not really the topic to debate the rights and wrongs of Brexit apart from how it affects people buying holiday money. The fact is that the UK has now lost its AA+ or AAA rating by most major credit agencies. Given the vast economic clout of the EU, I suspect that the euro will recover more quickly than sterling, in which case the rate will get worse.
