This governor of the Bank of England has been rather inadequate over his term of office, in my opinion.
His ill-timed comments have caused financial problems on more than one occasion, and the committee he leads was seriously slow in lowering interest rates - possibly leading to greater cuts than might have been required if they had acted sooner.
His recent remarks about the curtailment of government expenditure was clearly a political move, designed to embarrass the Government and it has ill served our nation's recovery.
