"British Finance Minister Philip Hammond said Tuesday he could not see a situation where he would reject a request by the BoE to boost the economy by buying more bonds. GBP/USD fell below the 1.210-figure to lows of 1.2083 after the comments. BoE Governor Carney spoke in the House of Lords but despite some fairly ludicrous social media rumours that he was going to resign, he did not manage to inflict any further damage on GBP."
