Might be the hope a hard brexit is off the table?

Some may hope the whole thing is off the table as it risks the UK banking sector.

I find it laughable how this is spun as a vote of the people against the establishment, the courts are the only thing that has actually stood up against said establishment so far.

It's exactly that. But it's amazing to see political instability treated as a positive thing by the markets when often it's the other way around. What it's, to an extent, saying in this case is the government is a pesky thing which could get in the way of global capitalism.

The markets don't want a hard brexit, if they would get it another way that isn't "instability" which is self-imposed, they'd also be pleased.

And yes governments don't always do what markets/capitalist want, but the hard left hasn't a fucking clue either here. Leaving the whole of capitalism with no ethical bank or country to loan from? Good luck.

I'm for more government control BTW and oversight.
