Watching James watching that chart is almost as entertaining as watching the Wimbledon crowd following the exchanges between Federer and Djokovic……….almost

UK Markets As widely expected, the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee left interest rates unchanged. While of course closely watched by markets, the decision and subsequent Press Conference was overshadowed by the continuing political drama unfolding in nearby Westminster.
