Bank Of England base rates From 1694 - 2004 updated at rate change.

Look at the Retail Price Index RPI .. measure of inflation updated monthly, still used for OAP increases ... but not targetted by Govn now, they use Euro measure ( local taxes - Council Tax and Mortgages - not included ) ... starve the council grants .. C.Tax goes up .. no effect on CPI ... clever old Gordo another great goalkeeper !! )
All available from same source.

Interesting to match bank rate and inflation rate ... If you are into loans and Mortgages .. I think that's what they are termed :wink:
