Current Affairs Cost of living…

Telling you right now mate, it’s us against them. No help will be made under this government. Somethings got to give and I think I’m 12 months time we will nationwide riots.

Sicario style. That's what they deserve.

Then again, I am currently watching Inside The Real Narcos.

Everyone’s a little bit happier at the moment due to the nicer weather. However once the winter comes and it’s worse than last year for hills it’s going to cause utter depression. With the age of social media this will lead to full scale riots.

Excellent news.

Put me down for 2.

That is obscene - $10.50 in convict money for Pringles!

Half the price in paradise. Bout time you lot emigrated.

I already have, not much better here ATM $8 for a bag of Kettle Chips, Pringles are cheaper though admittedly, also fuel is around half the price so there is that

Nobody riots in crap weather

Less than £2 in most supermarkets for that size tube or £2 to £2.25 for the larger 200g tube. I suspect that over inflated price is a WHSmith in an airport lounge which somebody else already suggested.

It's like children are running the country that don't understand what the consequences of their actions, or worse they know and welcome it. All they're doing is taking a huge piece of the economy - those with mortgages and by taking away their disposable income it prevents them going to pubs/restaurants/attractions buying whatever which in turn will end up in a lot of those closing and before they have chance to react the economy will be dead from a tax receipt point of view and THEN they will put interest rates to low or even a minus value to try and recover.

People are also asking for bigger wages to cover higher bills which in turn causes companies to put up prices. So I wonder what this is going to do? As I guess it would cause businesses to put up prices to pay their bills that have increased yet again.

These economists are about the same as the people in the control room at reactor no.4 in Chernobyl, putting up interest rates like they were withdrawing control rods, instead of slowly doing it over a period of time and eventually it's just going to go boom.

But hey least the banks will be better off for all the money they are raking in now and then the people who will buy up cheap houses.

This chap is saying similar. BoE too slow to originally put them up, but not allowing time for previous increases to flow through, and now going overboard with increases which may not be needed…

The Bank of England could be tipping Britain into recession

Threadneedle Street was too slow to raise rates. But now it's overcompensating – and the effects could be dire

Quite. I have no idea what makes up the inflation "basket" they measure. But fuel has fallen over the last 6 months, food isnt going up anymore, in fact, some staples are coming down. Kin idiots.

On the plus side, you might be able to mop up a few cheap properties when the plebs have to give up their homes.

Swings and roundabouts

That sort of comment doesn’t fit the narrative mate.

I’m not a big fan of landlords or people owning multiple homes if not needed…but you can fill your boots……

Course their needed. How else are the banks and shareholders gonna take all the money, instead of pesky Tesco?

So so glad I'm locked in for a while. This could get nasty for a lot of people.
