Make

Hi.

"Nigel Lawson, a chancellor during Margaret Thatcher's time as prime minister, said Carney had been given the responsibility to advise the government over the scheme and should stop "bleating about it" and make a decision." [From The Guardian.]

Should Carney make a decision or should he stop making a decision in this context?

Thank you.

He should make a decision. *Stop make a decision is ungrammatical, so stop making a decision isn’t a possible interpretation (and wouldn’t make sense in this context anyway).
