Bank of England left interest rates unchanged at 4.25%

Governor Bailey noted inflation is predicted to revert to the target of 2%. However, he cautioned that more evidence is required before imposing any rate cuts. Current geopolitical strains, particularly regarding oil prices, add complexity to future decisions.
