Actually, we expect inflation, this blue line, to have dropped back to the banks 2 target soon. Which is partly the result of those 1a earlier Interest Rate hikes, the red line from the bank. But itsjob is notjust to get inflation down, but to keep it there. And some prices for services, such as hospitality, Car Insurance and mobile phone tariffs, have still been rising fast, wages have also been rising fast, wages have also been increasing at a pace that some rate setters were recurred risk reigniting prices. Now, ultimately, the decisions about your borrowing and Savings Rates depend on these, the nine people on the banks Interest Rate panel. This is how they voted a couple of months ago, only one voted for a rate cut. Now she has beenjoined by one of the banks deputy governors, dave ramsden.

Half an eye on the news. Around 1,700 people across the uk are living with undiagnosed hepatitis c after receiving contaminated Blood Transfusions decades ago, according to analysis by the bbc. Official documents also show that government and nhs efforts to trace people who are most likely to have been infected, were inadequate. 0ur Health Editor hugh pym has this report. A quick diagnosis and treatment can save lives, but patients are still coming forward even decades after being infected with hepatitis c from a Blood Transfusion. The hep c trust says there are two calls from the newly diagnosed every month. Thats really quite shocking, that theres people walking around, having had Blood Transfusions many years ago that have never actually had any treatment for the hep c. And had they had treatment for the hep c, their prognosis would be hugely different. Maureen passed away in february with liver cancer, five months after she was diagnosed with hep c and 47 years after she had the Blood Transfusion that infected her. Even though her medical records show she needed many Blood Transfusions in 1976 and had Hep C Symptoms since 2008, she wasnt tested for the virus. Her daughter, victoria, is furious. Why was there not a campaign on the tv . Posters in the doctors . You know, why was mum not tested . Because if mum had have been tested many, many years earlier, the outcome would have been very, very different and my mum would still have been with us. In 1995, the government announced a look back exercise but restricted funding for the process and didnt publicise it. Despite saying they wanted to find victims in the mid � 90s, new evidence seen by the bbc shows that the government instead actively tried to limit Public Awareness of the hepatitis c virus, deciding not to speed up detection to avoid embarrassing bottlenecks at liver clinics. This internal note, written by a government official, says raising awareness poses undoubted difficulties for the nhs. Ronans mum was transfused with a single unit of blood in 1978. She discovered she had hepatitis c in 2004. 11 years after diagnosis, jane died with liver cancer. She wasjust 53. As her Liver Function weakened, she was made to attend crowded clinics, suffering from a build up of fluid in her abdomen. She required regular drainage. One time, she returned home because there wasnt a drain for her and her abdomen actually ruptured. And it was a very traumatic thing to see. Excuse me, sorry. And i did phone up the hospital. And i was very firm with them in saying, my mum is here because she has been infected with contaminated blood. Please dont treat her like a drug addict or an alcoholic. Just look after her. Ahead of the inquiry� s report, the government says it will listen carefully to the community as this dreadful scandal is addressed. The failings for patients with infected Blood Transfusions will certainly form a large part of that report. Hugh pym, bbc news. If you know, or think, you had a Blood Transfusion in the 1970s, � 80s or � 90s and have concerns about your health, you can request a free nhs Hepatitis C Test online.

Vladimir putin has used russias annual victory Day Celebration to acknowledge that the country is going through a difficult period, but he said it would not tolerate any threats from the west. Victory day commemorates russias defeat of nazi germany in the second world war, as well as the deaths of millions of soviet citizens in the conflict. Heres our russia editor, steve rosenberg. Well, as you can see, the big Victory Day Parade has got under way here in the centre of moscow. Thousands of military personnel, more than 9,000 people, marching across red square in the snow. I say big parade, but this parade is actually not quite as big as it has been in previous years, before russias invasion of ukraine. Now, in russia, under Vladimir Putin, victory day has become pretty much the main Secular National holiday. A day to remember the soviet defeat of nazi germany, but also the enormous cost of victory, the 27 million soviet citizens who were killed in whats referred to here as the great patriotic war. So, here comes the hardware. The Victory Day Parade for russia is an opportunity to project russian power. Now, i mentioned the second world war. Russia today isntjust remembering the past. Its weaponising it to try to justify the present. So the authorities want the russian public to view the war in ukraine very much as a continuation of the second world war. They want russians to believe that, once again, external forces are trying to destroy russia nazi germany then, ukraine and the west today. While in reality, two years ago, it was russia that attacked ukraine, launching a full scale invasion of its neighbour. From Vladimir Putin today, a warning to the west. Translation russia will do everything to avoid a global confrontation. But, at the same time, we will not allow anyone to threaten us. Our Strategic Forces are always on combat alert. So a Military Flypast and the russian tricolour in the sky brings this parade to an end. But there is no end in sight to the war in ukraine, nor to the tension between russia and the west.
