As I'm sure you are aware, controlling inflation is the central role of the sovereign bank and the money supply is one of the key factors along with the "Risk free rate" in it's toolbox
The Bank of England uses econometric models to attempt to project impacts of varying these levers, which have to take into account various forecasts of economic activity, employment rates, GDP etc etc
You can read about these models here:

Most of these models are deterministic.
Rather than try to give you a lesson in economics on this forum, you can read this information from the Bank of England which I hope will explain it all to you:

Apart from the interest rates, sovereign banks have other levers available which you can read about here:

Hope this helps.
Are you missing the point on purpose?
I know what the BoE does, I know how inflation works. That isn't what I asked.
What I asked was how the BoE printing money and spending it directly on infrastructure creates inflation? The Government does it already on other things, I see no inflation. That is because as I've already said, inflation is only created if the money goes directly into the money supply, which it wouldn't if you spent it directly.
How do we know this - well look at 2008 and the money we printed then. How is the hyperinflation we've been living through for 10 years? Oh, wait...

Some of us have spent many many years studying this stuff
Your knowledge is just superficial as you have displayed many times.
Dont just keep on spouting the garbage you get from Momentum.
So I'd like you to educate me on how Government investment banks work then please. I don't see hyperinflation in any countries that have those, e.g. South Korea.
And again 2008 we printed BILLIONS and yet no inflation.
Also, nothing to do with Momentum. Always an attack by somebody who is losing the argument.
