Sterling falls to its lowest in seven months against a firmer U.S. dollar ahead of a Bank of England interest rate decision at 1100 GMT, where rates are expected to be left on hold at 0.5%. All eyes will be on any hints on the timing of the next interest rate rise, and Morgan Stanley says a "lack of strong new guidance" pointing to a rate increase in August could see sterling come under pressure.
