A plummeting pound means more money in the Venezuelan kitty spurned by Boris Johnson.  As of now, it’s:

£19,515,167.2352

having gone over £19.6m earlier.  A caveat – because of falling oil prices it’s possible that 20% of London’s diesel doesn’t cost $32m any more, but they haven’t fallen *that* far.
