On 6 May 1997, Gordon Brown raised interest rates as chancellor for the last time and then handed the keys to monetary policy to the Bank of England. In the first of a two part series, we reflect on that decision with Paul Tucker, a former deputy governor of the Bank, discussing how it was taken, the institutional upheavals and the fruits of independence.
Presented by Jonathan Ford and Neil Collins.
With Sir Paul Tucker.
