There’s loads the tories could have done better, but when it comes to inflation that isn’t exactly spectacularly low in the rest of Europe either. High fuel prices, high food prices… largely due to Ukraine.
I did a quick google, and now that inflation’s dropped, the UK’s actually below the EU average. Of course, that’s cold comfort in a country that’s been suffering from grossly corrupt governance and an ideological obsession with austerity for over a decade. There’s certainly things that the government could have done to mitigate the effects on the most vulnerable.
Also, if you’re going to blame the tories for high inflation, that also means you have to give them credit for reducing it, which is something I don’t agree with either.
