Based on: Speculative
Burnham formally took office on 21 July (Royal audience). His pro-EU stance and EU-rapprochement plans are seen as GBP-positive. EUR/USD is expected above 1.15 on 23 July per open Cassandra forecast; with EUR/GBP ≈ 0.86 this implies GBP/USD ≈ 1.33–1.35. Polymarket priced Burnham at 99% as UK PM as of 7 July 2026. Risk: early uncertainty about fiscal policy.
