So how can official inflation rates for NOVEMBER take into account lower petrol prices...........BEFORE the decrease has been passed onto the public?

Mind you this only helps Toss pots who own Gas Gusselers(sp).
Btw it also helps industry....lower fuel costs, but they are all Tosspots right?

The fall is being dubbed an "early Christmas present" for consumers.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE............duh!!!?????
When did the fall in petrol prices pass to us, the consumer??? Not in November..........so why has the "official" inflation fallen in November????
Hope this answers your question
