"It’s a day of important speeches in the UK. PM Starmer is addressing parliament and he is expected to announce increased defence spending, just before he jets off to visit President Trump. BoE Economist Pill is also speaking (9.00ET). Pill commented earlier this month that lower rates are to be expected but the pace of declines would be slow."
