The Bank of England followed suit.
Just get a load of this bullshit. They’re claiming inflation will fall next year.
Andrew Bailey explains why we have raised rates by 0.5% today. Inflation is too high, but we think it will fall back quite sharply from the middle of next year. Raising interest rates is the best way we have of making sure that happens. pic.twitter.com/6weWyFOO5Z

All these people do is lie.
These rates are not nearly high enough to do anything substantive about the inflation. These policies are destroying the economy while allowing inflation to run rampant.
