What does the raise in interest rates mean?
The Guardian
What the coverage says
The Bank of England has raised interest rates to 4%. The Guardian reports that this decision arrives during a cost of living crisis, which will leave many "incredulous" because it contradicts Office for Budget Responsibility analysis predicting lower inflation and little impetus for wage growth. Meanwhile, the BBC explains what this change means for individuals saving to buy a house or for a holiday.
