Figures show that inflation in the UK fell to 1.9% and is now at its lowest level in over six years. Last month inflation fell to 2%, bringing it back in target for the first time since the 2008 economic crash. This is yet another sign that the Conservatives' long term economic plan is working in turning round the economic mess left by the last Labour Government.

Conservative Councillor Michael Mitchell says: "Lower inflation means slower price rises which is a good sign for the UK economy. George Osborne has the policies we need to ensure we get the balanced recovery vital for us all."
