UK Tory MP Grieve: Will oppose deal unless it is put to a referendum

The British Pound largely ignored these comments and the GBP/USD pair was last seen trading at 1.2852, adding 0.17% on the day. However, the fact that the EUR/GBP pair is also up 0.4% on the day at 0.8660 suggests that the GBP/USD's daily advance is a product of the broad selling pressure surrounding the Greenback rather than the GBP strength.
