isnt this what you were saying was a problem before? so this is the solution
Yet they include electronic goods whose price always goes down over time
you were saying about tech that goes down in price over the years...
so weights would account for that then?
Nope
I mean I think what they want is to remove as much volatility as they can.... this does seem like a bit of a cheat tho 😛
Oh absolutely, and there might not be a better way of measuring it
so the weights are essentially calibrated every february
Nevertheless, it -always- undereports true rates of inflation felt by the public, and the disparity gets worse the lower down the income scale you go
oh I missed PMQs
Meantime, Cummings is still beasting it:

Why the heck is Boris planning scrap the boundary review reduction of seats from 650 to 600?
Something like that yes
what?
eccles, do you have a source on that
on what?
``[12:53] Eccles: Why the heck is Boris planning scrap the boundary review reduction of seats from 650 to 600?``
Sure
What will be the result of that boundary change
Idea is to ensure each constituency represents roughly the same number of citizens
^
At the moment, London is hopelessly overrepresented by MPs
So the result will probably be fewer Labour MPs
