Original Note:
Inflation by definition is a rate of growth in consumer prices. https://www.economicshelp.org/macroeconomics/inflation/definition/ It is perfectly normal in economics and mathematics to talk about the change in a rate of growth. Inflation has fallen from 10.1% to 8.7%, so tweet is factually correct. https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/inflationandpriceindices/bulletins/consumerpriceinflation/april2023 No note needed.
