Breaking: GBP/USD drops sharply as DUP rejects key parts of Brexit deal

The Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party has expressed its discontent with several points in the Brexit deal that the UK and the EU are finalizing.

Leaders of the European Union are convening today for a critical summit in which they hope to sign off an accord. UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been busy negotiating with his European counterparts as well as trying to muster support for an agreement at home. The House of Commons is set to convene on Saturday for an extraordinary session.  

GBP/USD has dropped from above 1.28 to around 1.2750 and high volatility continues.
