Reposted by Kevin O’ConnellWarren Oates @warrenoates1.bsky.social · 17/12/2025UK inflation fell significantly again in November, down to 3.2% from the 3.6% in Oct & 3.8% in Sep. It's the lowest rate since March. Despite media reporting it as a surprise, it's to be expected & on course with the Bank of England projection for it to head towards the 2% target next year. 54715
