A government minister has called on Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England, to appear before the Treasury Select Committee to explain his "one-sided and biased" comments over the economic impact of Brexit on Britain.

The criticism is an intensification of the argument between Carney and Vote Leave campaigners, who were furious at his warnings of an economic downturn if Britain votes to leave the European Union.
