    These dodgy PPE contracts just look even more corrupt now considering we're getting shafted from every direction with price rises! It looks like "The Great Reset" is losing it's conspiracy theory tag & starting to become reality like everything else!

    Good job Doris I'm 20 and will never be able to afford my own home now and also since I'm disabled we barely get enough to live on as it is either pay the rent or starve

    Get out of Sterling now, while you can buy something with it, the BoE are letting hyperinflation happen, then comes the civil war.

    After the billionaires have increased their net worths by… well, billions, the rest of us after being put out of work and locked up all year essentially get additional taxation on absolutely everything. I mean in all honesty, what's not to like!?

    interest rates cannot realistically go up beyond 1%, the macrotrend is deflationary.

    Remember that some of the vulnerable are rely on savings to keep them afloat. An interest rate rise might help them.

    Meanwhile there's also stagflation and less items on the shelves. Just look at the size of say a 400g galaxy or cadburys chocolate bar… oh here's now 360g yet the same price. Anyone else noticed shelves taken out of supermarkets or items like beer once stacked in piles now spread along shelves?

    The Bank of England Marxists can’t raise rates as our national debt becomes more expensive. Buy Gold, Silver and Bitcoin to preserve wealth 👍

    I bought my first house when the interest rates were 13% ( thirteenth) I am such a hero 🦸

    I love it when the “ young generation “ try to insult you by calling you a “ boomer “ and as usual they just make themselves look foolish as they will throughout their lives sadly
