He will release his own 100 page report on what he calls the stolen georgia election, two pages bigger than the charge sheet against him and his 18 accomplices. And well tell you how the us Treasury Secretary came to accidentally eat Magic Mushrooms while on a visit to china. First a Welcome Development here in the uk. Inflation fell sharply to 6. 8 injuly, from 7. 9 injune. But it still means prices continue to rise. Prime minister rishi sunak says it shows his governments plan is working, but he cautioned against complacency. The drop was fuelled by lower energy costs. But Core Inflation which looks at price rises excluding food and energy remained unchanged. According to the office of national statistics, the rising costs of hotels, air travel, and rents are among the costs keeping inflation high. Economists are still expecting Interest Rates the tool used by the Bank Of England to control price rises to be raised further. Our economics editor faisal islam reports. The heat may be coming out of rising prices at supermarkets and convenience shops, and that can be seen, for example, in milk prices on the shelves of this shop in walsall. Overall they are still rising, butjust by less than they were. This area was, originally, about two months ago, all a pound, so every single bag was £1 but then they went up to £1. 25, and now we have seen a further increase for newer stock which is £1. 35. And is it going to go back to £1 . No, it is definitely not going to go back to a £1, i think this will be the new price. But some things have gone down . Some things have, like the cost of milk has gone down. That has gone down, and we have noticed that on the point but things like these that arent made from milk, havent gone down, these have gone up. Here and in shops across the country, they are still updating prices on a weekly basis, but falls in gas and electric bills are offering a glimpse of a more normal economy. Todays figures were driven by those first falls in average Household Energy bills, which soared amid the Russia Ukraine war even after government support. July saw the first fallback to about £2000 for an average dual fuel bill. That has helped drive down the Inflation Rate from a high of ii to under 7 . Though that is still higher than other similar countries, and well above the target of 2 . And elsewhere in the economy, the key Service Sector inflation measure, which includes restaurants and hotels, actually rose to a joint 32 year high. At this robotics and Automation Business in walsall, they have the technology to help boost the economy. They say they are riding out the rising Business Costs but are worried about rising Interest Rates. From our point of view, automation and robotics, the uk lags quite woefully in truth, so the impact on access to finance and the cost of borrowing could further have a negative effect on that. What are you most worried about now . From our own perspective the biggest concern for us is high Interest Rates, and whether that will actually slow down general industry, and the general approach to investments. Back at this walsall shop, the owner says his customers are still facing the Cost Of Living crisis. Last year he subsidised hot Water Bottles to help, and may need to again. I wish we didnt have to do it but i think. We will have to again this year. Inflation seems to be following, now, quite rapidly. Does it feel like the crisis point is over . No. I think we are still in it. With some prices going back there is a path out of this long period of economic uncertainty, but todays evidence is that it will remain bumpy.

It is great to see you both and jack it is great to see you both and jack i want to speak with you. Inflation numbers coming down but the cost of rent, cost of food still high. We alwa s rent, cost of food still high. We always knew rent, cost of food still high. Always knew that inflation was going to fall today because of this energy price, and is kicking in for the first time in these monthss figures. The comparison with other comparable countries to the uk, uk is the only country of major western economy that will be celebrating a 6. 8 Inflation Rate. As faisal was just saying, the Inflation Rate higher than the us, higher in germany, higherthan higher than the us, higher in germany, higher than france, higher than the us, higher in germany, higherthan france, it isnt a good picture for britain but its at least improving. This is a very political thing in the uk. Rishi sunak promised inflation would health by this time. Were talking about inflation, 5 which is way above what british people are use to, way above what the Bank Of England has had as its target which is 2 , still not really a good news story for the government and of course the crucial context politically is there is a general election looming here next year in the last thing the government wants to be doing is going into that with whatever one perceives to be a cost crisis.

But inflation is only part of the economic picture here, and the report you heard from the Business Owner talking about high Interest Rates, that is another hugely political issue in this country and is something that feels a long way off changing it, and of course the high Interest Rates we are experiencing, particularly hitting homeowners very hard, they are a key voting group in the next election, those high Interest Rates strangely in this country are pretty much universally blamed on the government. Rishi sunak � s predecessor was a Prime Minister for a whopping 49 days, but she managed to crash the economy to the point where Interest Rates have sent through the roof and havent really come down again. The ruling conservatives are very much tied to those Interest Rates, people blame them very specifically for that economic measure and so, you know, inflation is not the only thing that rishi sunak needs to get a handle of if hes going to win back some support that his party lost last year.

The deal involves a total pay increase of i7 over two years. Junior doctors had been planning to take Strike Action before the latest pay offer was made by scottish ministers. It will cost Scottish Government £61. 3 million and will be met from existing budgets. ButJunior Doctors in england remain in dispute with the westminster government, with those on strike looking for a 35 rise to bring wages back in line with the huge cuts made in 2008. So jack and amanda, lets bring you back in, jack starting with you.

The Scottish Government, run by the Scottish National party, very very different approach to the conservatives done In Westminster who run the nhs in england. I think the smp i think scotland will have wanted to be seen to be taken a different approach to westminster. Set up these Dividing Lines saying look, we do things different differently from those guys down there. We dont want that to happen to hear, we have to take a different approach even if it means we have to pny up approach even if it means we have to pony up a lot more money to stop that happening. And In Westminster the argument that the treasury is making that these sorts of big pay rises that the scottish Junior Doctors are going to now enjoy, would be in themselves inflationary why they are not prepared to do it across the rest of the public sector. Relatively small group of people the scottish Junior Doctors, and he probably think they can do this and get away with it, score a political win over their rivals down In Westminster.

By every metric its been an Incentive Crisis for some time now in terms of Waiting Lists an Ambulance Waiting Times and many many other things, so the last things that they need is prolonged Strike Action by such a core part of the workforce. And you know, where these strakes to continue into next year it would only add to that sense of crisis around, a very very Central Public Service and one a lot of people will be taking into account when they are voting. But equally as you say, there have been very very stringent in what theyre saying, they sort of tied these pay deals to border economy and say we cant just tied these pay deals to border economy and say we cantjust cough up economy and say we cantjust cough up large amounts of money because it will only send us further into a sort of Price Wave Spiral which is terrible for the economy so were just not going to do it.
