Overall: 
The new hook is okay. Mehedi Abedin 11:58, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
The article (and hook) identifies the global chip shortage as a cause for inflation, and uses this source to verify this. However, I could not find mention of the chip shortage in the source. Can you quote where the shortage is mentioned in the source, or provide another source to verify this information? I am also concerned that the hook says 80% of inflation is caused by global factors, when the article identifies this as the opinion of the BoE governor. Perhaps the governor should be mentioned in the hook? Z1720 (talk) 19:33, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
- Z1720 Mehediabedin ALT1 ... that Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey said that about 80% of the UK cost of living crisis involves global issues? I cited the chip shortage, but I'm going for a different hook now. SL93 (talk) 22:21, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
