Not sure what Johnson and the tories would actually have to do to get you to wake up.

I expect some tinkering around the edges in the Spring statement but, f*ck me, we're in for a rough few years.
Just wait until the new energy prices surge in after April.....

A lot of people stand up for the poor but don’t make a song and dance about it. Monroe claims poverty but managed to adorn herself in tattoos? Must be a difficult decision, ‘Eat, heat or inkings?’

Got an IP address match with O-no but only for a handful of posts from a mobile device so the match may be a coincidence.

George M's last post was 9th March. Dexter registered on the 8th. Coincidence I'm sure.

If he / she starts going on about how sh*t the moderating is over here, it's Esteban / Huxley. If it gets really nasty, it's Mrs FTC.

Do you know when she got the tattoos ?
Or if they were gifted her as presents ?
Or maybe she saved a little bit harder ?

Why are you against people having basic food costs &
The ability to do something they choose to ?

Maybe we should all buy 4p porridge ?

According to the NHS porridge very good for oneself.
I don’t know where you can get it for four pence . Last time I had some was in McDonalds for about a pound. Some posh delis around my way charge about four pounds!

CPI inflation 7% in March, the highest since 1992 and expected to increase further for April.

RPI inflation hit 9.3%

Producer Price Index, which can be an indicator of the direction of travel for CPI, hit 19.2% in March.

Also, just seen that student loan interest rates are expected to rise from 4.5% to 12% for high earners and from 1.5% to 9% for low earners from September. An average graduate with £50k debt will incur £2,200 to £3000 in interest over 6 months.

Interesting seeing some contrast from elsewhere:

United States - 8.5%
Euro Area - 7.5%
Germany - 7.3%
France - 4.1%

Like all things under monopoly capitalism there are winners and losers when inflation has spiralled out of control.
