A big, bad week in Brexit and Bitcoin - The Editor's Desk

Loading player...
In this episode, Alec Hogg and Felicity Duncan look back on a chaotic week in Brexit. Theresa May secured a draft agreement, but defections from her own party have put its future in doubt. With some calling for a hard Brexit, it's anyone's guess what the future holds. Meanwhile, markets and businesses try to muddle through the uncertainty, at great cost. They also discuss Bitcoin, which had almost as difficult a week as May. Down over 60% on the year (and more than that from its December 2017 high), Bitcoin has broken free from a months-long period of relative stability and started to fall again. Alec Hogg has some interesting theories about why that is. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
