The concept of CPI is BS and has been for years as its a massaged number the government can trot out to tell us how good a job they're doing managing the economy and if you're struggling its because of YOU, not them.
Never mind all the hidden inflation (you know that chocolate bar that used to be 250g and is now 220g in NEW packaging but the price is still the same right ?? ) and things they don't count when calculating it.

Just wait til interest rates go up and people can no longer afford electricity, gas and a mortgage.
