Hi

Hope someone can help me with trying to fathom out the UK annual inflation for 2014 and for first 6 months of 2015 please.

Im trying to work out cost of inflation to assist in a wage increase.

Thanks

Close to zero i think as a rough guess.  Wouldn't know where the exact figures are obtained from.

I would say an average of about 1%. Maybe a touch less.

Thanks guys - my info showed last year as 2.2% but maybe Im getting it from wrong (online) sources.

Hows things Keith - hope all well - Im wanting to get to York this Ebor meeting but also fancy the the Sky tourney at DTD - what a dilemma - not sure where Id do most losses ;D

Hope you decide on York.

I'll be there Weds - Friday (Saturday is far too busy). See you there if you make the wisest choice!

To find the technical boring answer :

http://ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/cpi/consumer-price-indices/june-2015/stb-cpi-june-2015.html#tab-Retail-Prices-Index--RPI--and-RPIJ (http://ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/cpi/consumer-price-indices/june-2015/stb-cpi-june-2015.html#tab-Retail-Prices-Index--RPI--and-RPIJ)

Jan 2014 the RPI index was 252.6
June 2015 it was 258.9

Which I think makes 2.5% but Jan and Feb were weird months as it went -0.3% then +0.6% for each of those months.

Then of course there is the difference between RPI, RPIJ, RPIX, CPI etc.   ;sleep;

Be lucky to find anything in town this close to the date. And if you do it will cost a fortune.

Better off trying Harrogate or similar.

Anywhere to have a reasonable night out - last summer we went to Pickering and Whitby for a midweek break followed by Beverley races - what a great little course.

Just seen that Ripon races are on the Tues pm - Harrogate would be ideal for both im sure.
