Looking for a rise in interest rates?
A survey by moneysupermarket.com has found that 41% of Brits would like to see a rise in the Bank of England's base rate so they could get a better return on their savings. A further 11% want the rate to go up in order to bring inflation under control.
However, 23% don't want the base rate to increase as it means their mortgage payments will go up and 24% think a rate rise would damage the economic recovery.
