just below the figure last.

up to the the Commons vote, as markets speculated that the UK gov't would lose &

be forced to pursue Customs Union membership in a 'no deal' Brexit scenario.

However, PM May avoided defeat, helping GBP edge off lows, cable last $1.3110.

- AUD/NZD continues to track the differential between AU & NZ 2-Year swaps, with
