UK Interest Rate Announcements

[Trader333]

Can anyone tell me when the Bank of England will meet again and announce any changes in interest rates ? Also is there a fixed day or date of any month when this is done.

Thanks


Paul

The futures are pointing to a 1/4 pt cut to 3.5%. Most of the commentators seem to agree with that as well.
