Bank of England Holds Rates at 4.25%
The Spin
Pro-government narrative
Inflation is a necessary part of a healthy economy. When managed well, it signals growth, supports investment, and enables job creation. The recent rise in U.K. inflation is temporary and expected to ease. Through measured interest rate cuts and smart investment, the government and the Bank of England are ensuring long-term stability and rising living standards across the country.
Establishment-critical narrative
The Bank's consistent lack of consensus and the government’s unreliable economics are costing people. Confused signals, constant U-turns, and flawed ONS stats leave the economy adrift. With inflation stubborn and rates still high, families face steeper bills and mortgage costs. In response, Reeves continues to borrow and tax more and more, expecting to use other people's money to solve her own problems.
