The "abstract" here for lack of better terms is extremely misleading.

The minimum wage raised to approx 10.50 from 9.50 last month, but the survey was polled last year, when the minimum wage was 9.50.

That makes the discrepancy shrink to approx 5% from 15%.

We've had 10%+ inflation in basics in the UK so you can't really compare 2021/2022/2023 like for like without accounting for that.
