• Greene says she voted for Bank Rate on hold in August due for 2 reasons: "The risk of higher inflation persistence has increased, and secondly, I think the risk of weaker demand has decreased, particularly since May"
• Greene discusses being concerned about inflation persistence and the knock on impacts for inflation expectations.
• She notes that "We expect GDP growth to pick up, underlying GDP growth, particularly, to pick up modestly from here. So that suggests that any kind of labour market shakeout that I had been worried about before probably won't be coming. Employment intentions are still negative, but they're less negative than they had been previously, and that's from our agents that suggests that some of the or much of the adjustment in the labour market may have already occurred." As well as the Agent's survey she points to DMP.
• {gb}Lots of focus on food inflation from both Greene and Lombardelli. Underlining the importance of that box in the MPR and that it really is headline (not just services) inflation that is the most important point for the MPC right now.
