We don't call it 'inflation' in the modern collectivist United Kingdom.
We call it a "Cost of Living Crisis" because most are too thick to know what inflation is.
We're talking about voters here, Keep it simple and euphemistic.

it's not the country that won the second world war. The survivors came home and raised fat, retarded children.
I moved to the UK to get a degree which will be recognised by companies, unfortunately if I graduated back in my home country of Egypt no company overseas would look at me twice. Living here now itβs sad to see how bad things have gotten. Soft times really have created soft men
We should bring back pitch forks and tar and feathering. That might some folks over there, but we used to love it over here in States.

Totally agree! The term "inflation" is often misunderstood by the general public. It is seen as a technical term that is only relevant to economists. However, inflation is a real problem that is affecting the lives of ordinary people. The cost of living crisis is a more relatable term that can help people understand the impact of inflation on their wallets.
It is important to keep the message simple and euphemistic when talking to voters about the cost of living crisis. People are already feeling stressed and anxious about the rising cost of living. We don't want to add to their anxiety by using complex language or jargon.
I actually think it's more evil than this, they call it cost of living so they can politicize consumption, "why would you need so much gas?! You shouldnt eat so much meat anyway" inflation is just a technical term, living is being redefined
