While today’s CPI says inflation has flattened, its exclusion of key costs like interest payments means we're not seeing the full picture

Do look out for the next release of the Household Costs Indices which do look to capture different household experiences on 26 Feb 👀

OK folks opinion please. I wrote in a draft paper "In view of the well-documented tendency of AI to make things up . . . ", and I'm under pressure to replace "make things up" with "hallucinate". Which do you prefer? #AI #euphemism #Lies

For vast parts of North America, Asia, Africa & Europe – it is a cruel summer.

For the entire planet, it is a disaster.

We can still stop the worst. Accelerating temperatures demand accelerated #ClimateAction.
