Bank of England governor, Andrew Bailey, urges UK government to deepen ties with EU to minimize negative impacts of Brexit on trade and control inflation.
Bailey emphasizes the importance of closer cooperation on financial services and highlights the need to mitigate the effects of Brexit on the economy.
He warns that increased barriers to trade could lead to less efficient economies, inflation, and uncertain supply conditions post-Covid.
Inflation in the UK rose in April to 3.5%, surpassing the Bank of England's 2% target, further increasing the cost of living for renters, especially young people.
