One things certain when spring rolls around next year there will be far fewer on the bank and the second hand market will be awash with gear.

Seen the prices of Fox's latest offerings

Bodywarmers get them now before stock runs out 😀

Protesting / not paying -It's reminiscent of the poll tax protests and the same outcome...

This problem with Ukraine could go on for years.....I'm not sure what the final resolution is

Life isn't going to cheap for a long time now....

All the inflation rivalling pay rises some folk have managed to get are only going to further exacerbate the problem..

Pay rises for regular working people aren't the cause of spiralling inflation...

Huge profits in the billions for companies and owners / directors / tory friends.... that's where your problems start

Inflation - someone has to generate the money to pay for these rises.
Their will always be company directors as their are council leaders paid more than prime ministers.

Funny I don't know many poor labour MPs / peers.

Lord sainsburys a labour peer ?

If you pay people decent wages they can spend more and feed the economy

If the money goes to the already super wealthy it just sits in their bloated bank accounts paying for their plastic wives and entitled offspring

This is exactly how it works, paying people more results in more disposable income to spend, leading to greater Money flow in an economy, making more jobs, more money in circulation etc.

The super wealthy essentially hoard money, not distributing it through an economy and causing stagnation. along with the fact that much of the money earned is then syphoned to off shore bank accounts never to be seen in the economy that generated it.

Simple isn't it?

The only surprising thing is the stupidity of people who can't see it and continue to facilitate those who benefit from it

Something that means people don't have to choose between heating and eating as a start point. Especially when mps are claiming thousands in 'expenses' toward their fuel bills and enjoying heavily subsidised lunch and dinner in one of the many places to eat in Parliament ...
Something that means mothers don't have to go without a meal to feed their children instead while bosses of energy and water companies are being paid huge amounts for ripping off consumers and appalling service and government sanctioned disgraceful practices.

Any of those things would be a decent start.

This inflation has been caused because of the Covid quantitative easing of pumping billions from fresh air into the economy and the lockdowns themselves!

What makes me laugh is the reasons we're told why prices for energy have risen........the demand after Covid being far more than before Covid.......Chuck in the Ukraine bollox and we have to pay obscene amounts.......

Why the **** the government don't fire up coal and start North Sea gas again is beyond me......
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
