the back of england —— bank of england's committee voted to raise rates by a quarter of a point. the bank says inflation is set to reach 8% next month with a warning that it could peek even tighter later in the year. this means around to .2 million households. in a statement, the bank said the war in ukraine had led to further big increases in energy and other commodity prices, including food prices. and it warned that "the effects of russia's invasion of ukraine "would likely accentuate both the peak in inflation "and the adverse impact on activity by intensifying the squeeze "on household incomes." our economics correspondent, andy verity, told us from outside the bank of england that today's move had been expected. most economists have predicted that we would get the third consecutive rate rise in a row. it's on a surprise given the current context what the bank of england policymakers are saying. there's been us a succession of large shocks to the economy. you already know about the pandemic, and the global reopening of the economy, after that pandemic, there was a surge in d
