    My wife works for the company that owns Kettle and a bunch of other crips brands and they are having all sorts of supply issues. Think she said something like there might be no supply at all in the next 2 or 3 months.

    Ukraine & Russia account for around 65% of the world's sunflower and vegetable oil production. Prices have rocketed and supply is becoming sporadic for supermarkets.

    Aye, I work in a takeaway at the weekends and the price has doubled and supply is getting worse.

    For a large shipment of medical goods to Japan a year ago, at our reduced rate, about £250. Todays shipment, £380. Fuel surcharge is killing companies.

    Things are going to get a lot worse. We are reliant on imports of most goods. The economy may be still fairly buoyant at the moment, although the poorest 30 percent are now in abject poverty. Most of the "I'm alright Jacks" are soon to be dragged into this. Cue civil unrest when it gets close to half the population.

    Partygate may look unimportant, but it shows that the ruling class don't give a flying **** about anyone but themselves.

    I run a cafe. 30 eggs were 2.95. now 3.75. not a massive difference coin wise but the increase of products is astoundingly unbelievable.

    The lumpen proletariate never overthrow governments, it’s generally when the middle classes get organised, hence why Pol Pot shot everyone who wore glasses.

    Not sure what you call the proletariate? Ordinary folks? Or people you can just treat like ****.

    Depressingly you are right. Thankfully at 57 my eyesight is OK.

    I want to live in a better world.

    Furlough is already paid for. We are not actually at war, and the green movement will reduce our reliance on increasingly scarce petrochemicals which *should* reduce bills in the long term.
