Despite mixed signs over the health of the economy, Bank of England
policymakers have decided against adding any further emergency support.

Its Monetary Policy Committee have kept the base rate of interest at its

It's also left quantitative easing unchanged at 375 billion pounds.

The decision will increase focus on next month's meeting, when most economists
expect more cash to be pumped into the system through the QE programme.
