Original Note:
While it is true that inflation increases living costs, reducing it will not reduce the cost of living to make our money go further, as implied in this tweet. If inflation is halved, prices will continue to rise - albeit half as quickly as they are currently. https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/cost-living-crisis#:~:text=But%20prices%20will%20remain%20high,previous%20level%20in%20real%20terms.
