John, I think he might have meant between £200 and £500.

It is the things like Bread, milk, butter etc that are going up in leaps and bounds...and the things that don't appear to have risen in price have shrunk in size.......200grms of cheese in a pack that used to be 300 grms...which is a price rise, a hidden one.

I never believe the figures that any government put out...they are invariably massaged in some way to make the current incumbents look good, rather that to inform the general public. Just a sound bite.......of no earthly value.
