the only member expected to dissent is catherine mann. mann voting for a hold, same a vote split at the november meeting, but if we saw her put in for a cut that would be read as a debit signal. if another voted for a jumbo cut, that would be read as dovish as well. the expectation that there will be a downgrade to the growth forecast and upgrade to the inflation of, and that is going to be based on an outdated market curve, so a tricky communications job for the governor and were bailey. he will either have to push back on market pricing or appeared to be criticizing the chancellor's budget, but embarrassed -- embarrassing the government given that the payroll tax resume abetted to inflation more than the bank of england initially. we will also be watching these work as a very closely for clues as to how much had a room -- head room she will have later in the year. that is the budget for the office of responsibility's responsibility to decide. whether she needs to cut spending, raise taxes, or break those nonnegotiable fiscal rules later

it seemed to me that they weren't brothers like henry and thomas mann, but there was a distinct, similar variety between their background. and what they were facing in the roles that they were taking on once inaugurated. now, lincoln obviously was not a soldier. he had served briefly as a as a volunteer in the in the war indian war. but afterwards said he he spent most of his time shooting mosquitoes and. he was a lawyer and a politician. he had been like davis, a congressman, for two years in washington, but he had no executive experience. he was, in a way, not quite a country lawyer because he springfield was a town and he traveled the state. but he he was limited in his experience, things very limited and faced seeing as his opponent. a man who was a born soldier, a man from mississippi who was a general. a man who'd been trained at west point. a man who had come handed an american regiment in the mexican war and would become a national hero for his combat as a colonel. a man who after that had become a senator in washington and then secretary of war for four years. there was nothing

catherine mann i think could be the outlier in terms of going for no change in rates.hink the risks around the labor market are clearly skewed to the downside. and whilst the near-term risks to inflation i think clearly are on the upside, reflecting national insurance contributions and also european energy prices, i think the focus really has to be the extent to which the bank wants to deliver some credible, forward guidance to the market and look through what will be quite a significant run up inflation in the months ahead. >> how can the hawks justify pausing now, if we do see one dissenter calling for a hold, given you've got growth down, you've got services inflation down, you've got labor market intentions, you know down. what is the justification for pausing. >> i'm not sure there is. you know the fed is restrictive with rates at 4.375. the bank of england is obviously very restrictive with rates at 4.75. i mean, there's clearly concerns about the supply side crowding out because of fiscal stimulus issues around, you know, the increased costs coming through in th

we had catherine mann, the bank of england official, two weeks ago, voting for that 50 basis point rate cut, talking about nonlinear falls in employment. i don't think we're there yet. if you look at the jobs, jobs numbers yesterday, as you said, the sort of payroll based numbers weren't so bad. vacancies, though, are well below pre-covid levels in key sectors like hospitality. you know, that should be dragging wage growth lower. i think it's still a bit of an unknown where we land in april after those tax hikes. the pmis, as you say, are bad, but redundancies are still pretty low. it's a puzzle okay. >> it's a puzzle a tricky one for the bank of england. and what did you make of the growth numbers that surprised positively we had gdp actually tick higher. but sounds like bayley's been trying to play that down. and clearly gdp is somewhat backward looking. >> yeah. and it wasn't great right. you know point 1% growth. yes. it was better than everybody expected. but it was still weaker than everybody had expected just 2 or 3 months earlier. i think we're still looking at better growth num

in the 1830's, it was the commonwealth of massachusetts and a legislator named horace mann that accomplished the common school movement, pushing education to poor and black children. by the 1870's, reconstruction in the south gave way to jim crow laws that segregated public spaces, including and explicitly our schools. additionally, child labor exploitation was rampant, education for girls lagged far behind and children with disabilities were far too often institutionalized and not educated at all. a little more than 100 years later, our department of education in its modern day form was championed by none other than the late, great president james earl carter. may he rest in peace and power. he knew that fully implementing the civil rights legislation of the 1960's and fighting jim crow would require a well-resourced federal role in education. this agency had existed for over a century in many iterations but carter explicitly understood that at the core of education was a vision of opportunity and access for every child in america. he and congress resource the department accordingly and thi

take a look at what congressman tracy mann of kansas said.for 70 years, kansas and american farmers have played an active role in sending their commodities to feed malnourished and starving populations around the world. he calls it a free gift from the american people that will help vulnerable communities. there's also the question of tariffs. senator chuck grassley of iowa tweeted a few days ago that he wants an exemption for iowa farmers from the pain of some of trump's threatened tariffs in canada. senator rand paul of kentucky said republicans won the last election by complaining about democrats policies that he argues led to high prices, and says tariff lovers will be forced to explain the persistence of high prices. his fellow kentucky senator, mitch mcconnell, wrote in an op ed that kentuckians will face the higher costs as a result of trump's tariffs. higher costs of as much as $1,200 a year for kentuckians, according to one study. now, the sleeper dynamic here, chris, is that red states that vote solidly for trump are disproportionat

i've introduced a bill with senator john hoeven and senator roger marshall and representative tracy mann to move food for peace from the turbulent usaid program and move it to the department of agriculture in an effort to prevent waste and bring the program closer to farmers that depend upon it. usaid has a long and proven history of managing agricultural policy and programs that support american farmers. food distribution systems, and global security efforts. usaid has boots on the ground and the infrastructure already in place to support the logistics for food assistance. the agency understands how to move crops efficiently, sustain play, and quickly. this knowledge is indispensable when responding to international crises or speed and reliability -- where speed and reliability can mean the difference between life and death. by placing food for peace under usaid's authority, we make certain that the program is in good hands and can continue to bring revenue to american agriculture. as just a little over an hour ago the senate confirmed the new secretary of agriculture brooke rollins, i'

is that him showing sympathy with catherine mann, the arch hawk turned arch dove on the committee who joining the doves. but yeah, the break was expecting a contraction in the fourth quarter. we got slight growth. the fact that he is basically talking it down is striking. i mean, descriptively it's pretty accurate. if you look at what has happened to the economy since the second quarter, where we basically went nowhere. if you dove into the data on a gdp per hit basis, that's still completely flatlined, it's not doing anything. the private sector, the market economy on its own is technically in recession. that's done the heavy lifting since labour came to power and the private sector struggled. it fits the narrative of the poor sentiment since the tax rises. they've been picking up the strain, pay rises for example, earlier. how do you expect that to fit into the bank of england feeling? they had talked about a softening labor market? the forecasts had been on higher employment and prices and this was related to the increase in the national living wage and the tax on employers. the jo
