The rate of Consumer Prices Index (CPI) inflation in the UK fell to 4.2% in December, down from 4.8% the month before, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
Retail Prices Index (RPI) inflation – which includes mortgage interest payments – fell to 4.8% from 5.2%
A little bit of reasonable news, but a drop 0.6% is really a statistically insignificant number.
