i'm thinking there could be some macro policies stuff, mncs and inequality but it's so hard to predict. have you got any predictions?

yeah they could literally throw anything at us. i think macro policies will also come up, maybe some stuff on the digital economy because i dont think that has come up in recent years. there was a bit on minimum wage and inequality last year so i don't think there will be much of that this year, maybe poverty reduction policies?

yep i got that too
i got 1.17 initially but felt it was too low to be the rate of inflation so did a different calculation and got 4.81% instead
