Borrowers should be happy though.skyblueamateur said:Just watching a Youtube vid and the ad at the start featured Nigel Farage talking about the scourge that is inflation and how it is going to impact savings. No hint of irony at all.

Sainsbury’s in East Yorkshire didn’t but Waitrose had some but only the basic stuff. Nothing that comes with hint of hay , sulphur or even chlorine.elbowloh said:

I sense this could be the first Christmas to remind me of the 70s in a looonnnggg time.
A satsuma, tube of smarties, an annual, clothing and one toy. One sibling got the "big" present on a rotation. Cue the Yorkshiremen....The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

I'll do the opposite of the Yorkshireman, I did get a Mr Matey bubble bath and bottle of Babycham (plus of course chocolate coins but that's a given surely?).pblakeney said:I sense this could be the first Christmas to remind me of the 70s in a looonnnggg time.

We were spoiled with a glass of sherry once a teenager. Never understood why sherry.
But Mr. Matey, oh yes.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

It's great to see prominent right wing windbags decry the excesses of the free market.rick_chasey said:
I'm also enjoying the undertones of "the people can't be trusted to celebrate Christmas sensibly, so we shall enforce it". When liberals make similar arguments they rightfully get crucified for it.0 -

Someone on one of my Whatsapp groups posted this pic of a Shell station near us this morning.when he went to get his car washed. All fuel types were in stock and the queue for the car wash was the only queue.
Might be time to move onto moaning about the next temporary blip?

Nothing says "wasn't a real problem" like it being notable that a petrol station has petrol.3

Nothing says normal like messaging your mates to tell them where petrol is available.

Exactly my point. It's a short term issue - with various causes many of which were not Brexit related.TheBigBean said:

I do find it funny that each sector that finds itself in trouble is "oh well, it's only X, that's not life threatening to do without" .
My expectation was that after brexit things would be alright, but a bit less good than they could have been. I didn't really expect it to have been ballsed up to this extent.0 -
Still it does show the UK's influence on the world. Who would have thought how much Brexit would disrupt the global supply chanin.kingstongraham said:

Here is an article that details some of the issues going on around the world. It's not very exciting, but the point is that there are major issues everywhere. The relative winners won't be known for a while. Countries that are less exposed to gas prices may do better.elbowloh said:
