The British Pound dropped more than 0.40% on Tuesday as risk appetite turned sour. Political uncertainty weighed on the currency after MP Andy Burnham prepared to succeed Keir Starmer, who held the post for two years.

A strong US PMI reading added pressure on GBP/USD, which traded at 1.3195 after hitting a daily high earlier in the session. Markets continue to monitor the shifting UK political landscape and US economic data for further direction.
