Well, after a tough couple of years, today’s figures show that our economic plan is working and inflation continues to fall. Having been 11% when I became Prime Minister, it’s now fallen to just over 3%, the lowest level in 2 1/2 years. And we’ve also seen mortgage rates for energy bills fall. And data this week showed that wages have been rising faster than inflation for nine months in a row. Now. Because of all of that, we’ve been able to cut people’s taxes and 900 LB. Tax cut for the average worker and increase the state pension by 900 lbs. This month, that all shows that our plan is working. And my simple message would be if we stick to that plan, people can have confidence that there’s a brighter future ahead. Well, inflation is expected to continue falling over the coming months, but these things don’t happen by accident. It’s because we have a plan and that plan is working. When I became Prime Minister, I set out five priorities of first was to halve inflation. We’ve more than delivered on that with inflation falling from 11% when I said that, down to just over 3% this week. And with wages rising, energy bills falling, we have been able to cut people’s taxes. Significantly putting more money in people’s pockets, increasing the state pension. You have to stick to that plan if we want the brighter future that we all want to see.
