The United Kingdom’s headline inflation rate remained steady, defying forecasts of an increase as a slowdown in food price rises helped offset climbing energy costs. Food and non-alcoholic beverage prices experienced a monthly decline for the first time in over two years, providing some relief to consumer households. Despite this easing in the food sector, overall inflation persists above the Bank of England’s official 2% target, keeping pressure on policymakers regarding future interest rate decisions.

BBC, do you know that the amount of food gets reduced but costs the same. Go and buy a packet of Walkers crisps to see as an example.
Are we supposed to be grateful for that, there is no need for the risees but greed. The prices go up and our incomes remain the same since the 90s. Make it make sense
