Currently, one British pound buys 92.918 rupees, up 0.51% as of 6:19 AM UTC. Thus, the pair updated the highest level since March of this year. The rally started on November 8 after an extended sideways trend, with the pair gaining over 2% since then.<\/p>\n<p>The bullish trend turned steeper after a survey carried out by Survation and published by Good Morning Britain showed that the UK\u2019s Conservative Party, led by Prime Minister Boris Johnson, would win 42% against the opposition Labour Party\u2019s 28% during the early election scheduled for December 12.<\/p>\n<p>The PM called for an early election in the hope to consolidate the position of Conservatives so that he could win the MPs vote for his agreement with European leaders. Today, speaking at the Confederation of British Industry, Johnson is expected to say that he would end the current uncertainty if elected.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, the PM is about to announce a series of tax cuts for British businesses, as the CBI\u2019s director general Carolyn Fairbairn is worried that Johnson\u2019s stance on immigration could lead to a skills shortage. Johnson will pledge tax relief for the construction and research businesses. He also plans tax relief for small employers by increasing the allowance for their national insurance bills to 4,000 pounds from the current level of 3,000 pounds.<\/p>\n<p>According to advance excerpts, the PM <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/politics\/2019\/nov\/17\/boris-johnson-to-pledge-tax-cuts-business-bid-ease-brexit-fears\">will tell<\/a> CBI: \u201c<em>Let\u2019s not beat around the bush, big business didn\u2019t want Brexit. You made that clear in 2016 and this body said it louder than any other. But what is also clear is that what you want now \u2014 and have wanted for some time \u2014 is certainty.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Fairbairn expressed her concerns about Johnson\u2019s intention to reduce the coming of migrants to the UK. She told the media:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhen we hear talk about brightest and best, I think that is a worry. If you do want to build 200,000 houses a year, you don\u2019t just need the architects and the designers, you need the carpenters, you need the electricians, you need the labourers. We need people to come and help us renew our economy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/wise.com\/?utm_source=currencylive-com&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_content=news%2Fwp_json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F82238&utm_campaign=news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-65277\" style=\"padding-top: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/currencylive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/transferwise-inline-banner-money-transfer.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"125\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<hr \/>\n<h6><em>Currencylive.com<\/em><em> is a news site only and not a currency trading platform.<\/em><\/h6>\n<h6><em>Currencylive.com is a site operated by TransferWise Inc.
