根據蓋洛普韓國民調，韓國總統李在明的支持率跌至37%，再創新低。反對率也創下56%的新高。反對率比前一週上升了5個百分點，達到56%，正面評價和負面評價之間的差距達到了19個百分點。對總統工作表現評價最低的原因是房地產政策（20%），其次是人事任命（16%）。評價最高的是“外交”，佔比26%。

Bank of England held Bank Rate at 3.75% as expected. Six MPC members, including Governor Bailey, voted to keep rates unchanged and the committee’s stance was unchanged from July.

The Bank also abandoned plans to sell long-dated gilts and said it will complete the run-off of its £488bn bond portfolio by September 2034.
