UK Inflation Rate (1875–2022) [Figure 4.1]
Figure 4.1 presents a dataset of the UK's annual inflation rate from 1875 to 2022. This historical data reveals distinct economic periods, including significant deflation (falling prices) during the interwar years, periods of disinflation (slowing inflation) in the mid-1980s and mid-1990s, and a long phase of relatively stable, low inflation from the early 1990s until 2022.
