As an interesting aside, I can't seem to find it right now, but there's a podcast (US based) I listened to the other day and it was talking about how a lot of inflation is largely mental and part of the reason they work so hard to try and keep it down with interest rates is because once it establishes itself at a certain % it's literally impossible to penetrate the social fabric to bring it back down again once everyone collectively kind of just decides that it's at a certain amount.

Pretty fascinating stuff about how a lot of it just isn't real.
