The next cut in rates will be dramatic.  50 bps as a minimum, possibly 75 bps.  At last, the rest of the MPC have realised what David Blanchflower has been saying for months...the inflation threat is not existant.  With that gone, at least in the short to medium term, rates should fall to approx 3.00% fairly quickly.  (The silver lining to a very black cloud.)

I think they'll go even lower. We're at the beginning and its going to bite badly. Inflation won't be a problem as with tax increases and job losses, people won't spend. I reckon they'll even drop to 1.5% within 2 years. Hold on to your hats and your jobs for a crap ride worse than the 80s or 70s. i hope I'm wrong but I think UK PLC holds a nap hand of crap at the moment as we don't actually produce anything and we're totally dependent on financial services and tourism.

That big Tesco's by the County Ground normally equals the lowest price around. I think it's 94.9p at the moment as well.
