The Telegraph take

By Sophie Smith, personal finance reporter

Boris Johnson previously claimed there was only a "million to one" chance we’ll exit the EU without a deal, but the Prime Minister has also committed to taking the country out on October 31 no matter what. This is making a no-deal scenario a lot more likely.

The impact of no-deal could be felt in every aspect of life, including your finances. But will this be positive or negative? This week, Telegraph Money looks into how this could change varying aspects of your savings, investments and life planning.

It could be good news for your investment portfolio depending on what you own. Laith Khalaf of Hargreaves Lansdown, the broker, said a chaotic Brexit could actually boost larger blue chip stocks, as the pound falls in value and pushes up the profits at global companies. Handy.

What about travel bookings, currency exchange and duty free? The British government has promised that flights, ferries and rail services will continue to operate. But will travellers face lengthy delays? Marianna Hunt answers your most frequently asked questions.

Althea Talbot-Howard said about ‘Nationwide rejected me for mortgage because it claims I’ve got a ghost tenant': "I think that leaving a sofa bed in the box room has been a very costly mistake. Home offices don't normally have sofas in them. The room would have needed to have looked like an office or ironing/drying room in order to have passed the surveyor's inspection."

Pericles The Younger said about How a millionaire's gift to his disabled son triggered a 6m inheritance tax bill: "Australia abolished inheritance tax (IHT). Italy has it as a few per cent – and it isn’t levied on family homes. Those are simpler systems! Try an IHT rate of 5 per cent on all estates – and there’ll be fewer gifts, fewer trusts, fewer land exemptions, fewer disasters like this story. I’ll bet more comes in overall as well."

George Dunn said about The three reasons your car insurance is about to get more expensive: "Another year of no claims. Another hike in my premium as I pay the penalty for other people's actions and insurance company greed."
