Bank of England member votes again for rate rise

A member of the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has voted again for a rise in interest rates. Minutes from the MPC's August meeting show Andrew Sentance voted to raise the Bank rate to 0.75% from the record low of 0.5%, citing high inflation. It is the third month in a row that Mr Sentance has called for a rate rise. The other MPC members at the meeting all voted for rates to be held at 0.5% for the 17th month in a row.
