Greed is part of the problem that's why prices have shot up and the tories are blaming war on ukraine and covid. It has nothing to do with that. I think they are helping private companies before they get kicked out like for example the waterboards that are making mass profits.
Some of that is supermarket price gouging, when they're posting record profits at Tesco that's because they're not being fair or honest with the consumer.

Inflation is the rate of change. Lower inflation doesnt decrease prices, it just means they increase slower. For prices to go back to 'normal' inflation would have to be negative which has its own heap of problems
It was actually a surprisingly good piece for sky news standards, the cumulative increases are often left out and people get confused. This shows clearly the time frame and in reality we have had near 40%+ inflation in about 2 years. Plus the tax burden one does lay it out quite starkly, conservative so called govt of low tax.

There are hundreds of products still going despite the energy and the cost of many commodities went down a lot in the last 12 months.
Due to the vast majority of UK people being on fixed rates, the effect of any interest rate cut creating a "feel good factor" of people seeing more money in their pockets is massively overblown by many commentators.
Let's never forget that this is the party that led us to Brexit. They never seem to mention the effect that this had on our cost of living. A convenient ommission in everything they have blamed over the last four years.
Does the household disposable income data include the mega-rich? If so that could give the false impression that households of all levels of income are, or have been, better off under x government over the years.

Now it's gone down to a little more normal levels, without even approaching undoing all the damage we just did. Therefore, vote for us - trust in our economic understanding!"
Numbers are all manipulated to make everyone think that they are doing well. To me, I dont feel the change. To Rishi please go youve done ur very best.
No chance of Sky doing that, they are fully paid up members of the Tory fan club, CH4 might do it, now that the threat of more legislation has gone away.
I'm curious as to why Sunak didn't wait until Autum. Before the Brexit (courtesy of David Cameron and Boris Johnson) and Truss (courtesy of herself), the Tories were known for being inflation hawks and good economic stewards. The economy is expected to be better this year, but it won't be until autumn that the data can be collected. If he waited that long, he could then try to sell "hey we're competent again." It's probably not going to work, but it seems better than the alternative.
We don’t need to be given an explanation about what prompted the decision. The press seems to want to convey the impression we should be surprised. I’d rather row in a boat with Sunak than Starmer.
