I think it might be a close vote. But I think the main driving force for inflation is the cost of resources, rather than consumer demand. I don't think holding interest rates steady in the UK is going to improve the Australian grain harvest, or encourage OPEC to increase production.
Not sure whether this thread is the right place to discuss that though! I'll be following the thread to see whether there are any better offers around on Monday the 7th.I am a trainee actuary, and really enjoy talking about pensions, economics and my job. But I suppose I should point out that all replies are for information or discussion only, and shouldn't be taken as advice: everyone's circumstances and pension schemes will be different.0
