Re: Inflation
Yes - same principle as a pandemic. You need to hammer it early doors to keep it under control.

Re: Inflation
A 0.25% raise in interest rates to 0.5%, will concern those who are very heavily leveraged. Just image a 7-8% mortgage rate, that will have an effect and 5% interest rates which is what is needed.
Inflation look at RPI for more true figure. CPI is rigged.

Re: Inflation
I would wait until the problems Brexit , the Pandemic , international fuel prices , and supply difficulties have passed. Inflation is an international problem made worst by the last two years turmoil. Whoever is in power would be facing the same issues.Ronnie Hotdogs wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 3:01 pm

Re: Inflation
Short term supply issues in both Labour and products contributing to inflation. Just to be clear , I voted remain but I am speaking about inflationary problems not wider issues there may/may not be as a result of leaving

Re: Inflation
But according to you the T*ries are leading the world in this
Or leading Europe with that .
If you are claiming it's a world problem,
Why are they failing with this ?

Re: Inflation
Ok. So I will humour you one last time. Brexit being done means the moment we left ,as you know , and not the years of post Brexit negotiations. This phase of the pandemic is coming to a close , hopefully it will be the last of it , but the economic fall out will continue for a while yet.tuffers#1 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 6:15 pmI thought you said Brexit was done & the pandemic was over ,George M wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 3:15 pmI would wait until the problems Brexit , the Pandemic ,Ronnie Hotdogs wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 3:01 pm

Not as you claim post negotiations .
B*dge got rid of tressamae because he claimed she couldn't sort out the 6 counties question &
Won an Election because he said
" We got brexit done ".
I notice you still forgot to educate me on why the T*ries are failing at dealing with the non pandemic & brexit stuff .

Re: Inflation
BoE puts rates back up to 0.75%. MPC voted by a majority of 8-1, so pretty conclusive.

Re: Inflation
Inflation recorded at 6.2% for February (higher than 5.9% predicted by economists).
The annual rate of inflation in all goods was 8.3%, up from 7.2%. The ONS states that this has never been higher since the data series began in January 1989.
I expect some tinkering around the edges in the Spring statement but, f*ck me, we're in for a rough few years.

Re: Inflation
It’s a crisis that will turn into lives ruined and lost. But the Tories couldn’t give a sh*t aside from the people who die won’t be paying tax anymore
