Sterling fell to the lowest level in 10 days against the dollar on Thursday, extending earlier losses after Prime Minister Theresa May said the European Union’s proposal on the border was unacceptable.
The currency touched a low of $1.3060, the weakest since October 9. Against the euro it was down 0.3 percent to 87.970 pence
