This is the Bank of England’s answer to ministers’ claims that the war in Ukraine or global interest rate rises are the key to the UK’s economic crisis : “The five largest daily moves in the 30 year inflation-linked gilt have all been since the (mini-Budget on) 23 September.”

My thoughts on UK #minibudget2022 in @thetimes. 3 main thoughts. First, every fiscal event attracts partisan comment - the advantage of financial markets’ reaction is it is dispassionate. There were uncomfortable signs of investors losing faith in recent U.K. economic governance

A number of reports have appeared in the Mail & subsequent publications about the Privileges Committee, its investigation into the Prime Minister & comments I & others have made I stepped down from the Committee last month. It is regrettable that no journalist spoke to me first – at South East, England
