My entire point is that prices going up is not inflation, So its not undermined, inflation is the money supply. The BOE causes inflation, Putin can cause price shocks.
Registrations is not indicative of anything, if you want to say car companies are doing badly, then tell me which car company is doing badly.
Its like trying to measure how many people are smoking by looking at sales of lighters.
Edit: In short, inflation is a money supply issue, and it has been combined with price increases due to other factors today.
This leads to the incorrect thinking that, Putin can cause inflation, he cannot cause inflation in the UK, he can cause it in Russia by ordering the Russian central bank to buy government bonds or corporate bonds.
