Finally some good news. Hopefully interest rates can be lowered soon
Let’s lower interest rates and give the hardworking landlords of this country a much needed boost to their property prices.
Just a reminder kids. This still means everything is getting (at least) 3.4% more expensive, on top of the rises of the last three years.
What basket are they using this time because it feels to me like everything is still rapidly accelerating in price quicker than what the figures show.
No prices have lowered.
Butter is till something like 65% more expensive. My energy bill is still double what it was in 2020.
Don’t be fooled.
Yeahhhhh, houses are cheap now! Food energy cheap!
You don’t need better wages.
We saved you.
I might be wrong but haven’t they recently changed how they measure inflation? If so would love to know the figure based on the previous calculations.
It’s thankfully now at least retreating to a level where the majority of people will get pay rises that actually do beat inflation again.
Will fall heavily in May with the energy price cap dropping end of month.
Just wait until Labour come in and destroy the economy, inflation will go above 10%
Funny how that doesnt affect the rising cost of rent, electricity, food, council tax etc…
Doesn’t feel that way. Food shopping is still expensive compared to a couple of years ago
It’s still inflation, everyone’s salaries are still way behind it and will never recover ever, no one is ever going to give their employees above inflation pay for the next 14 years to make up for what has happened in this country to balance those books, almost all of us (the peasants anyhow) are worse off and always will be.
