    The biggest drop in the pound since 1971, rumours of hedge funds shorting the currency, and claims Tory MPs are not happy about it. But is it time to worry? The Evening Standard’s Political Editor Nicholas Cecil explains what has happened, and the impact a drop in the pound could have. Plus Matthew Lesh from the Institute of Economic Affairs explains why some good could come from the fall in Sterling. In this episode:
    The pound’s record drop explained
    How could the Bank of England boost the pound?
    Unrest among some backbench Conservative MPs
    Could the drop be a temporary blip?
    How a crash in the 80s was a turning point for Sterling
    Why it’s a case of ‘wait and see’
