Isn't the next planned meeting not until November? Can they sit on their hands that long?
They blew that image by being so dovish on the last few MPCs
Yeah fair, a first time for everything though
I thought he comes across more of an Express kinda person.Just read the Telegraph, it tells n111ck what to think on a daily basis
Keep up, it's already 4.5%.
Who knows, but a fundamental problem seems to be we have the Govt trying to heat up the economy whilst simultaneously the BOE trying to cool it. So fiscal and monetary policy fighting against each other. I'm no economist but that seems an issue to me.
Well, I did say here on OC be careful what you wish for, when the lynch mob were in full on baying mode for Boris' head.
Even I have to laugh at just how soon after his totally unjustified ousting by the conservative party Left leaning folk on the Internet are wishing for his return
I bet Boris is laughing his arse off about all this...
Liz did say she'd make unpopular decision plus the left have form for hysterical overreaction (freedom day 1 + 2, not joining EU vaccine shambles, ending all covid legal restrictions etc etc) so will need to see how all this plays out.
Exactly. no one is telling me this hasnt been done deliberately. If 99% of this forum could see this coming so could they.
The Tories have been saying that for 12 years, we've already seen how its played out.
How long are you willing to wait?

They can of course. But even if they come out and hike 1% (which given the dovish nature of the MPC is frankly unthinkable anyway), that wont do anything and just puts us level with the fed.

With this lot, going "cap in hand" to the IMF
Yeah, I wondered if it was deliberate, throw highly leveraged home owners under the bus.
what's the benefit of that though?
