UK food inflation rapidly rising (07July11)

[irdial]

BBC lying scum are under orders not to mention the Bank of England, the true nature of inflation and what it all really means. Thankfully, people, even up to the level ignorant car mechanics (note how I said 'up), understand what inflation is and where it comes from. GAME OVER BBC trash, your influence is on the wane!

They mention the weak pound, but not why it is weak...

If bad weather was the cause of most rising prices, it would just be food. But the price of pretty much everything is rising, which points the finger at currency devaluation.

This is the problem with main stream television; the people invited to appear and present are coseted from the masses by over-inflated pay packets themselves. The newsreader, Carrie Gracie, a regular on the same station this programme is broadcast, News 24, openly admitted she earnt almost £100K for what basically amounts to reading an autocue aloud for a few hours every other day. Why is every other face on TV a millionaire?

Vive la alternative media!

@Channelography throw the tv in the bin

Not a sniff of a mention of the MASSIVE MONEY PRINTING, these clowns really do not seem to be feeling the pain of high food prices. It will get to the point where they are spending 90% of their inflated wages on food in the future though.

its all about money and control

[coltrane1966]

Converting your savings into gold or silver is an excellent hedge against inflation, although in UK we pay 20% VAT on silver it's still worth it.

"don't shop when you're hungry" -that's my favourite tip.

Jesus wept !

[Festoolification]

The central bank actively charged with controlling inflaion is hell bent on creating it.
