The pound rose to its highest level against a basket of currencies since the Brexit referendum, according to BBC News. The outlet's summary says the referendum took place a decade ago, and that the currency has now reached its strongest point against the basket since that vote.
The Guardian reported that the pound has hit its highest level since its crash in the wake of the Brexit referendum. In a report by Graeme Wearden, the newspaper said that data released by the Bank of England on Thursday showed the pound reached its strongest level against a basket of other currencies since the crash.
According to The Guardian's summary, the rise followed a fall in the dollar after the US midterm elections. The summary describes the result as a "ten-year high" that shows sterling's strength against other currencies.
The two accounts agree on the basic point that the pound has reached a high against the basket of currencies. The Guardian's summary is cut off before it names the date to which the Bank of England data refers, so the period of comparison is not clear from the material available. Neither summary gives a specific value for the pound, and the figure itself is not in the material provided.
BBC News's summary does not mention the dollar, the Bank of England or the midterm elections. Both outlets describe the pound's level against a basket of other currencies rather than against any single currency. Further detail on the exact measurement would have to come from the full reports.
