    If you look at the details most of that inflation is due to foreign holidays and imported computer games.

    So forego one of the seven luxury holidays per year and don't buy a new Xbox One X

    Sorted.

              That is the true Spirit of Brexit.

                Anecdotally, the cost of the weekly shop is increasing very fast again. The poorer sections of society are once again being stuffed.

                  It's what they voted for. People like us hardly notice it.
                  Hard Brexit now!

                    Yes, every month. But it is the governor who writes to the Chancellor and has been doing so each month for a while now. He just mails the Chancellor "refer to last month's report, nothing's changed".

                      True. They're so stupid they couldn't see this coming.

                      Whereas the rich (real rich, not contractors ) that funded/voted Brexit know how to make money from the turbulence.
