npub1g0tuf634rz4suczwj7kgnecr6cyt0eu9xmp3sp0fku68mqehq4msp3tvm4 (npub1g0t…tvm4) they did something similar with the pension triple lock during lockdown, but there was an excuse for that as the increase in pay used in that formula was biased upwards as lots of lower paid people weren't employed then.

Changing the reference month for inflation for the benefits calculation is however inexcusable, as in this case effectively they are trying to exclude from the inflation calculation the month when fuel prices jumped the year before.
