Rate of inflation
2 Answers
How do the government decide the rate of inflation is 2 percent?
Over the past year petrol, oil, council tax, gas, electricity train,and bus fares have risen "above the rate of inflation"
If this is the case the overall rate of inflation should be far higher than the government tell us,or is it going to be kept at a low where all increases are as stated "above the rate"
Perhaps George Orwell told the truth when writing 1984
saying all the people are brainwashed by the government?
Hello, is that the thought police knocking on my door?

Well food and clothing prices have been remarkably static and some even falling which will counteract some of the stated increases.
Somewhere (and I can't be bothered to look for it for you) there will be a web site that tells you how the index is calculated - what prices go into it and with what weighting.
Somewhere on http://www.statistics.gov.uk/ I would guess
Yep you are correct it's all one big fiddle.
