RPI is a familiar, long-established, measure of cost-of-living.
RPI has overstated inflation since 2010. The Office for National Statistics no longer treats RPI as an "official statistic".
In 2017 John Pullinger National Statistician said "The RPI is not a good measure of inflation and does not realistically have the potential to become one".
