I did and do not like Brexit (for the UK or EU), and 1 am a convinced Europeanist so I would not want that UK gets a good Brexit deal as it might incentivize wrong policial movements, yet like all EU things that make the EU such a gem project, we'll find a meddle through last minute agreement that will somehow work for everyone, (both the EU and UK need each other having functioning economies), or maybe not Brexit at all, although that might be me dreaming. I remember trading EURGBP as low as .61 in early 2000s and talks of joining the EUR at fair value around .72/75. I think .90 ish prices a lot of bad news and it seems assymetric to me. I think fair value should be closer to .80 and I would hope that when some of the Brexit uncertainties get clearer we move towards there, although I was hoping by now we would be closer to .85 ish and things do not seem to be moving down. I know not everyone agrees with this view, but I remain overweight prob for next 3-6 months and then will reevaluate.
